During the ceremony, Stevens Weaver from BGE’s Smart Energy Savers Program® and Big Shine Energy’s representative presented Harmon Plant Manager Paul Begley with a ceremonial check. By replacing 324 outdated 400-watt metal halide fixtures with 50-watt LED troffers, Harmon is saving approximately 454,045 kWh annually. This is equivalent to removing 744,965 pounds of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and removing 72 cars from the road. Big Shine also delivered Harmon its Big Shine #ApproachingZero green certificate.

Energy-Efficient LED Lighting
“Switching to LED lighting is one of the easiest and most cost-effective ways businesses can lower energy costs,” said Bill Wolf, Manager of Energy Efficiency Programs at BGE. “Businesses of all sizes can walk in Harmon’s footsteps and take advantage of available incentives that can cover as much as 50% of the cost of eligible projects to improve energy efficiency.
After learning that Harmon’s manufacturing plant needed a lighting solution to improve the working conditions and save energy, Big Shine implemented its turnkey solution services to address Harmon’s needs.
“You did what you said you’d do and completed everything on time,” Paul Begley said. “Even the temperature of the facility dropped by at least 10 degrees, [and] the employees can feel and see the difference.”

As a BGE service provider, Big Shine incentive specialists worked with the utility’s Smart Energy Savers Program to ensure that Harmon received the maximum incentive the company could qualify for.
