UNIVERSITY OF WASHINGTON RETROFITS DEMPSEY CENTER WITH HIGH-BAY LEDS

Cree Lighting has released details of an LED retrofit project on the University of Washington campus in the Dempsey Indoor Center. The solid-state lighting (SSL) project saw the athletic department increase light levels and decrease energy usage in the facility used both for practice and actual competition. Moreover, the LED upgrade will eliminate twice-annual maintenance cycles and expenses. In the University of Washington project, Cree Lighting supplied its HXB high-bay luminaires. That product won a 2017 LEDs Magazine Sapphire Award in the Industrial SSL Luminaire Design category. The product was designed for one-for-one replacement of high-intensity discharge (HID) fixtures. https://www.ledsmagazine.com/
