LED Parking Lot Light Retrofit

For the past 30 years, Waters Retail Group has been one of the most skilled and successful commercial real estate firms in the Mid-Atlantic Region. The benefit of their development expertise coupled with their many years of leasing, management, construction, and financing experience compounds this success.

The Problem

R.J. Waters & Associates was looking to reduce the energy consumption for the exterior lighting at F&N Shopping Center by completing a parking lot LED conversion. In addition to reducing the high cost of running the old lights, they were looking to improve the lighting environment for their customers by increasing overall light levels in the parking lot.

The Solution

  • 1000w metal halide parking lot lights replaced with 223w LED fixtures
  • Improved lighting quality by increasing color temperature (CCT) of lighting from 4000K to 5500K
  • Reduced light trespass by utilizing appropriate light distribution patterns
  • Increased average foot-candles to 1.66 throughout the parking lot


The Results

Below is a series of pictures of the R.J. Waters & Associates F&N Shopping Center parking lot LED conversion. The visual impact in the photos is clear. Stouch Lighting helped to significantly reduce energy costs while increasing the quality of light within the parking lot.

  • Energy Reduction: 79% reduction over existing lighting energy consumption
  • KWH Reduction: 63,812 Kwh reduction
  • Total Fixtures Replaced: 17
