Plessey retrofits its manufacturing facility with MaGIC LED kits

Plessey says that it is retrofitting its manufacturing facility in Plymouth, UK with LED modules designed using its MaGIC (Manufactured on GaN-on-Si I/C) GaN-on-silicon LEDs. The retrofit involves replacing aging fluorescent tubes and compact fluorescent bulbs in existing fixtures to use new LED light modules produced in the same facility. The manufacturing site currently has about 2700 fixtures with 4200 fluorescent lamps that consume 1,000,000kW/h of electricity at a cost of £100,000 a year and costs about £5000 in materials and 200 man hours a year to maintain. After the retrofit is completed, the firm expects to see a 25-40% reduction in electricity consumption, saving tens of thousands of pounds per year.
