GE lights Stater Bros cold cases with linear LED fixtures

Southern California grocery chain Stater Bros has undertaken a major LED retrofit of the lighting in its frozen food cases and projects annual energy and maintenance savings of $570,000. GE Lighting supplied the Immersion solid-state lighting (SSL) products that the grocer installed in 166 stores encompassing 15,000 freezer doors retrofitted in ten weeks. Strategic consultant TopSource LLC worked with Stater Bros to contemplate potential lighting products that could deliver the most significant energy savings for the stores. The pair chose to focus on the freezer cases as an area that could provide the most significant return on investment.
