New lights cut airport car park costs
21.11.11
Lights from LED technology company MHA Lighting has helped Newcastle Airport slash its airport car park costs. MHA has supplied 370 lights for the long stay car park that use less than a third of the power of the lights used previously.
MHA managing director Tom Harrison said: ‘Companies are seeing a 20 percent rise in their energy costs and want energy saving solutions like ours, that offer huge savings without having to compromise on light quality. Our LED lights will improve safety and security at the airport by eradicating pockets of darkness and making CCTV footage clearer.’
Newcastle is the second UK airport to choose MHA Lighting’s LED technology, after Manchester Airport fitted 2,500 lights at the Terminal 2 and 3 car parks this year, saving £80,000 per annum on its electricity bills. Terry Clarke, energy and sustainability project manager at Newcastle Airport, said the new system would save around 100 tonnes of CO2 every year, as well as cutting maintenance costs.
