University of North Texas Health goes with Ringdale ActiveLED

University of North Texas Health Science Center Lights Up Parking 
Garage With LED Fixtures: Reduces Energy Usage by 67% 

 
FORT WORTH, TX – LED Lighting Group (LLG) announces the retrofit of a 
five story parking garage for UNT Health Science Center with LED light 
fixtures. State of the art 52 Watt LED fixtures replaced existing 
fluorescent fixtures, providing an energy efficient sustainable lighting 
solution. 

 
The installation at UNT / HSC of 101 Ringdale LED garage fixtures reduced energy 
consumption by 67% while improving the distribution of light and 
increasing light levels. The project (materials, installation and rebate) will 
payback in less than two years and reduce CO2 emissions by over 1.5 
million pounds over ten years. 

 
"Quality lighting is very important in this garage. LED products have 
reduced energy consumption and improved the safety and ambience of the 
garage," said Robert Short, Project Engineer, University of North Texas 
Health Science Center. "The LLG fixture outperformed other LED fixtures 
which we tested while offering an impressive payback." 

 
“Energy producer rebates and federal tax incentive programs are in place 
to support the replacement of less efficient lighting fixtures with LED.  
These programs have followed the most strict product guidelines 
established for LED product. That holds the LED to a very high standard - a 
point of pride for us. These incentives have helped move LED lighting 
solutions to a mainstream market position which opens a much greener 
lighting alternative to the market.” Said Stephen Thomas, a partner in LED 
Lighting Group. 

 
LED Lighting Group offers lighting products for commercial, industrial and 
manufacturing facilities that save energy and reduce maintenance costs. 
“We offer lighting products that enable users to better control their 
operating costs. A mercury-free product, LED is ideal for an organization’s 
green positioning, and over its long life it is the most economical solution 
for general lighting,” said partner Mark Angle. 

 
LED Lighting Group offers consultation and energy efficient lighting 
solutions for municipalities, school districts and industry.
