The Background

The Swain Group is the UK’s leading edge transport, warehousing and distribution business. They provide transport services throughout the UK. Perfect Sense Energy surveyed a Swain Group transport depot in Astley to see how they could improve their current lighting and become more energy efficient. The previous lighting used large amounts of energy with four high mast metal halide flood lights using over 1kW of energy each, with expensive regular maintenance requirements.

The Solution

Perfect Sense Energy designed a lighting plan using modern 60w vapour proof IP65 LED luminaires. They offer huge energy reductions compared to the previous lighting and eliminated the need for frequent maintenance due to failures. Due to the condition of the previous wiring, brand new lighting circuits were installed to ensure that the installation was future-proofed and provided a lifetime of trouble-free service. The lighting was also designed to be controlled in zones, meaning certain areas can be turned on and off as required to maximise energy savings.

The Results & Feedback

R Swain has saved significant amounts of money on energy and maintenance costs, significantly improving Health & Safety in the haulage yard. The newly installed LED lighting eliminates the maintenance for at least 50,000 hours of use and will provide huge energy cost savings and improved light levels for years to come.
