Hotel renovation and considerable cost savings with energy efficient lighting (Kyrgyzstan)

Lighting systems in public premises such as hotels or guest houses have a number of functions: they create a cozy atmosphere and comfort, add to style and design, provide a productive environment for the staff and ensure their safety, etc.

Lighting accounts for 30-40% of electricity costs, thus, hotel and guest house owners are always keen to optimize their lighting options with energy-saving technologies.

The hotel in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan serves as a showcase of an efficient lighting system that does not compromise the comfort and atmosphere for the guests.

The Smart Hotel owners have modernized the lighting system by replacing the old lamps with more efficient LED lighting. They have installed more than 1,100 LED lamps replacing lighting outdoors and indoors: conference hall, restaurant and lobby.

Light-emitting diode (LED) lamps consume less electricity compared to incandescent or fluorescent lamps, and they function longer without special maintenance. This investment quickly pays off the costs, and also saves a good amount of money for the hotel owners.

BENEFIT

The replacement of the lighting system saves not only 100 MWh of energy annually, but it also helps to protect the environment. By reducing energy consumption, the hotel reduces its overall carbon footprint by 7 tons per year.
