US LED Project Case Study
Improving the energy efficiency of lighting fixtures
across US locations is one of the primary ways in
which Westfield Corporation reduces its Total Indirect
Energy Consumption and Scope 2 emissions.
As part of Westfield Corporation’s LED Upgrade
Program, we completed a total of 38 LED projects in
2017, including 17 “back-of-house”, 18 exterior and 3
interior lighting improvements. These projects saved
an estimated 17,390 megawatt hours (MWh). This
eliminates roughly 8,880 metric tonnes of carbon
dioxide from a GHG savings perspective.
In addition to these completed projects, Westfield
Corporation has nine LED projects expected to
be completed in 2018 and 2019. These planned
projects are estimated to save 6,520 MWh per year
(equivalent to over 3,000 metric tonnes of carbon
dioxide). Through our LED Upgrade Program, we
continue to look for opportunities to improve energy
efficiency and reduce operational costs. Therefore,
our team is currently evaluating an additional 19
LED projects that could save over 4,470 MWh of
electricity per year (equivalent to over 2,000 metric
tonnes of carbon dioxide).
