Worthing Leisure Centre - Changes to the Main Hall lighting

The works undertaken throughout December 2011 in the Main Hall are to upgrade the existing fluorescent tubes to a new energy efficient LED lighting system.

Staff and contractors have been working through the night over a 3-week period to minimise disruption to the Centre’s programme of bookings.

The project is part of Worthing Borough Council and Worthing Leisure’s commitment to its corporate priority of promoting a clean, green and sustainable environment.

A summary of the benefits is detailed below:

  • Average life expectancy of an LED light equates to 80,000 hours of use (75% more than a standard lamp).
  • Lighting and Colour clarity is significantly improved.
  • The LED lighting projects a saving of £5,249 per annum via savings across the Climate Change Levy, maintenance costs, reduced supply charges for maximum demand and a reduction in waste costs.
  • A reduction in waste (on average 10 bulbs less changed per annum).
  • Reduction to operational disruption as less time required for maintenance.
  • Dimmable functionality for use if required.
  • Positive environmental impact – LED lighting ensures less fossil fuel depletion, reduced CO² emissions and reduction in pollution.

We hope our customers enjoy the use of new energy efficient lighting.
