The numbers

  • LED uses 50-70% less energy than fluorescent or halogen
  • Typical payback: 2-4 years on a commercial upgrade
  • Lifespan: 50,000+ hours vs ~8,000 for fluorescent (and ~1,000 for halogen)
  • No mercury (RoHS compliant), no warm-up time, no flicker, no buzzing
  • Compatible with smart controls (PIR, daylight sensors, time scheduling)

For a typical 1,000 m² warehouse running 60 high-bay fittings, the saving is around £3,500-£5,500 per year in electricity alone, plus reduced maintenance from longer lamp life.

Linear LED panels — industrial spaces, car parks, loading bays

Beyond high-bays

We also do linear LED runs for offices, retail spotlights, exterior security lighting, and emergency lighting (BS 5266 certified). Smart sensors and DALI-controlled scene presets save another 20-40% on top of the LED swap itself.

Smart lighting controls

Adding controls to a LED upgrade typically reduces energy use a further 20-40%. We design with:

  • Occupancy sensors (PIR): lighting only on when spaces are in use — major saving in toilets, corridors, storage areas
  • Daylight sensors: automatically dim or switch off when natural light is sufficient — DALI dimming for smooth control
  • Time scheduling: automatic on/off based on shift patterns or opening hours
  • Zone control: separate control of different areas (showroom vs. stockroom, open plan vs. meeting rooms)
  • Wireless retrofit controls: Casambi and similar — no rewiring needed

Emergency lighting

Emergency lighting is a legal requirement in commercial premises under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. We design, install and certify emergency lighting to BS 5266:

  • Maintained or non-maintained luminaires (depending on application)
  • Self-contained or central battery systems
  • Escape route lighting, open area (anti-panic) lighting, high-risk task area lighting
  • Annual testing service available — we visit, test, and issue compliance documentation

Solar + LED — multiplied savings

Pairing a LED upgrade with commercial solar is the highest-return combination available. Lower lighting consumption means your solar covers a higher percentage of your overall use — and the LED reduction comes off the most expensive (peak-hour) end of your electricity bill.

For a typical office with both LED upgrade and 30 kWp commercial solar, total electricity bill reduction is often 60-75% in year one.

Grants & funding

  • UKSPF (UK Shared Prosperity Fund): some local authorities run energy efficiency grant schemes — availability varies by area and time
  • Salix Finance: interest-free loans for public sector LED upgrades
  • Capital allowances: commercial LED upgrades may qualify for accelerated capital allowances — check with your accountant

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How much can a LED upgrade save my business?
Typically 50-70% off your lighting bill. For a 1,000 m² warehouse that's often £3,500-£5,500 per year in electricity, before adding controls (which can save another 20-40%).
How long is the payback?
2-4 years for most commercial upgrades. Faster for high-usage premises (warehouses on extended shifts) and for retrofits replacing very old high-wattage lamps.
Do you do emergency lighting too?
Yes — design, install, certify to BS 5266, and offer an annual testing service. Often combined with a LED upgrade in one project.
Can I add lighting controls to my existing LED system?
Yes — Casambi and similar wireless retrofit controls let you add PIR, daylight and zone control without rewiring.
Do you handle the design as well as installation?
Yes — we produce a full lighting design with lux levels, fitting layout, and a written payback projection. No charge if you proceed with the install.
How long does a warehouse LED upgrade take?
Typically 2-4 days for a 1,000 m² warehouse with 50-80 fittings. We work around production where possible — out-of-hours and weekend installs available.
