At Aztec Electrical, we know understand the low-cost/high-payback nature of lighting upgrades/retrofits that makes lighting retrofits one of your best investments.
EEB
Hub member, Carnegie Mellon University’s Center for Building
Performance and Diagnostics (CBPD), identified the best lighting
retrofit options for the EEB Hub region and assessed each upgrade using a
“triple bottom line” calculation. The first bottom line calculation
captures the hard economic cost-benefits of energy and maintenance
savings resulting from each of the six retrofits. The second bottom line
captures the environmental cost-benefits that are directly linked to
electric energy savings: reductions in CO2, SOX, NOX, particulates, and
water demands. These four pollutants represent a majority of the
environmental damage from burning fossil fuels to generate electricity
and the consequences include respiratory illness, cancers, and
developmental impairment. The third bottom line relates to the human
health and productivity cost-benefits that are directly linked to
improved lighting quality. - See more at:

#2 The second bottom line captures the environmental cost-benefits that are directly linked to electric energy savings: reductions in CO2, SOX, NOX, particulates, and water demands. These four pollutants represent a majority of the environmental damage from burning fossil fuels to generate electricity and the consequences include respiratory illness, cancers, and developmental impairment.
#3 The third bottom line relates to the human health and productivity cost-benefits that are directly linked to improved lighting quality.
By
including the environmental and human impacts when calculating the
return on investment for each lighting retrofit, the CBPD demonstrated
how cost-effective six lighting upgrades can be: increasing business
profitability; lowering energy use and pollutant emissions; and
improving employee health and productivity. The practices are listed in
order from lowest to highest initial cost. - See more at:
