The lot was inefficiently being lit with outdated 400W metal halide fixtures, which were mounted on 20-foot poles hampered by low hanging tree cover. Because of this and their short lamp lives, the lighting required constant monitoring to ensure all the lights were functioning and providing resident students the visibility and security needed.

SOLUTION Clemson University Parking and Transportation Services installed Kim Lighting’s Altitude equipped with Hubbell Control Solutions’ wiSCAPE™ Wireless Lighting Control System. Because of the bright, uniform distribution of the Altitude, Clemson was able to install them on lower 18’ poles eliminating the tree cover issue. And with the wiSCAPE platform, the fixtures are programmable and dimmable using any networked device, giving the university the ability to reduce output and energy consumption during holidays. Prior to the retrofit, the halide fixtures were burning at 100% to adequately illuminate the areas while the LED fixtures now burn at 35% while providing an even, white light—ultimately reducing energy costs alone by almost 40%.

A Bright and Sustainable Parking Lot Accelerates Safety Project Name: Clemson University Location: Clemson, South Carolina

PROBLEMAfter a lighting evaluation, one particular student lot at Clemson University needed a lighting upgrade. The lot was inefficiently being lit with outdated 400W metal halide fixtures, which were mounted on 20-foot poles hampered by low hanging tree cover. Because of this and their short lamp lives, the lighting required constant monitoring to ensure all the lights were functioning and providing resident students the visibility and security needed. Additionally, the metal halide fixtures did not allow for dimming or timing with only two operational modes – all on or all off. This problem combined with Clemson’s goal to become carbon neutral by 2030 made LED lighting a seamless solution.

SOLUTIONClemson University Parking and Transportation Services installed Kim Lighting’s Altitude equipped with Hubbell Control Solutions’ wiSCAPE™ Wireless Lighting Control System. Because of the bright, uniform distribution of the Altitude, Clemson was able to install them on lower 18’ poles eliminating the tree cover issue.
