Transcript of P-2 | State Of The Commercial Lighting Industry | Energy Efficient Commercial Lighting
State of the Lighting Industry: 2013
By: Precision Paragon [P2]
• Every year we distribute our survey to over 4,000 of the most knowledgeable lighting industry experts available: our customers
• Our customers are comprised of lighting maintenance and relighting companies, energy focused electrical contractors, energy focused stocking distributors and ESCOs

2012 Lighting Revenue
• In the survey we conducted at the end of 2011, 69% of the lighting industry experts we surveyed expected moderate or substantial growth in their revenues from energy-efficient retrofits in 2012.

2012 Lighting Revenue
• This year, when we asked how much growth they actually saw in 2012, 67% reported either moderate or substantial growth. That's a difference of just 2% between expected and actual growth!

• Those surveyed are even more positive about 2013 than they were about
predicting growth in 2012.
• 77% of survey respondents expect either moderate or substantial growth in
2013, up 7% from last year.
Even More Retrofitting Growth In 2013

Nearly Half Use Automated Controls
• Nearly half of all current lighting projects are using some form of automatic lighting controls
• It makes sense to assess the suitability of automatic lighting controls in nearly every project from what our survey determined

• Simply stated, It's when a computer turns the lights off for you when you leave the room. We think it's pretty amazing stuff. We wrote a more detailed description of what lighting controls can do on our blog.

Fluorescent Still Dominants
• This year, 68% of our survey takers said that they expect High-Bay Fluorescent lighting to be the dominant lighting technology they install in 2013. This number might be surprising since LED's seems to get all the news coverage
• LED lighting has made advances in the past year, and that’s reflected by our survey takers, 26% say they will install it dominantly in 2013
• Although, fluorescent lighting has made significant advances in the past year. Just recently, major lamp manufacturers began to release lamps with 80,000 hour rated lives. For a lamp that operates 12 hours a day for 365 days a year, that’s a rated lifespan of over 18-years
• When you combine that with the low initial cost, it’s a no-brainer as to why our survey takers expect it to be the predominant technology they install in 2013

Continued Growth for the Industry
• We conducted our first energy-efficient lighting survey in 2009. A couple of things have remained consistent: our industry is continuing to grow and we're saving American businesses money year after year!
• Reducing energy costs while improving lighting quality was something that businesses wanted in 2009, it's something that businesses want in 2013 and beyond. P-2 has a plan to be there, giving our customers the fixtures they need and delivering cost savings and lighting improvements.
