LED Acceptance
The acceptance of LED lighting by sports and entertainment venue operators is due in part to the worldwide attention it received when Ephesus LED’s illuminated the Super Bowl this year. This rapid adoption of LED has lead Ephesus engineers to estimate that by Earth Day 2016, the company will have saved sports and entertainment facilities more than 200 million kilowatts of energy and 150,000 tons of CO2 emissions from being released into the atmosphere.
In addition, since Ephesus LED fixtures last over 10 years with no maintenance. For that’s an estimated 250,000 replacement legacy lighting fixtures.
