LETHBRIDGE, AB – A new lighting set-up at the Henderson Ice Centre is providing a boost to the environment.
The City of Lethbridge says the lighting replacement project will yield an estimated annual greenhouse gas reduction of 27 tonnes as well as an estimated annual energy saving of 43,400 kWh. This in turn marks an approximate 10 percent decrease in the building’s total electrical energy use.
“This project will help the City reach its GHG reduction goals and lower its operating costs,” stated Sam Conrad, engineer planner with the City of Lethbridge, in a release.
The project was supported by the Municipal Climate Change Action Centre’s (MCCAC) Recreation Energy Conservation (REC) program.
