Realize the Full Potential of LED
With TLC for LED® Technology, your facility will gain superior light quality, glare and spill reduction, and reliability while significantly cutting energy consumption.
Global Container Terminals Reduces CO2 Emissions and Energy Use at GCT Deltaport with LED Port Lighting Retrofit from Musco
The Challenge
Known as the “Gateway to the Pacific,” GCT Deltaport is Canada’s flagship container terminals. With its existing high pressure sodium lighting system reaching the end of its useful life, the company decided to upgrade to more efficient LED port lighting. Project leaders were able to meet stringent lighting standards for safety, but were also excited to reduce the facility’s energy usage and environmental impact.
The Solution
GCT partnered with Musco, with whom it had worked on multiple projects including lighting Deltaport’s Intermodal Rail Yard Expansion Project with TLC for LED® technology in 2016. Terminal leaders were pleased with the results from the project and chose to retrofit the remainder of the terminal with the same durable and efficient lighting system. The system approach significantly improved the efficiency of the installation within a fully-operational terminal and once installed, the factory-aimed fixtures improved visibility and safety for workers by producing clean, consistent light at the designated levels while minimizing spill light and glare. The new system significantly reduces CO2 emissions and cuts energy consumption by 39% over the previous lighting, saving GCT over $66,000 a year. And backed by Musco’s long-term warranty, GCT can be confident in the operation of the system for years to come.
“GCT Canada prioritizes sustainability through our Global Commitment Program. Projects like the Musco LED retrofit, with positive results for our community, environment and operations help us meet these commitments. Since implementation, we’ve seen a reduction in light aliasing impacting the surrounding community, energy consumption and costs are down, and we’re improving visibility and safety on the terminal. It’s a win-win-win..”
