of proper lighting
Brighter is not always better…
and dimmer is not always detrimental.
Light spilling away from the intended
surface or area can impact the
customer’s experience and
compromise safety.

Realize your potential
for energy savings
Lighting typically represents 30% of a commercial building’s electricity bill,
even more in gas stations. Now imagine cutting that expense by half.
Philips can make it happen.
As a retailer, you need to place the right amount of light where it is needed and when it is
needed to optimize returns on your lighting energy bill even more. Let Philips help your
business make the most of its lighting.
Our solutions let you achieve the right mix of energy cost savings and visual impact.

\\ Low-energy lighting…
Just where you need it,

motion is detected.

Optional light-on-demand solution
for added energy savings
When no one is there at night, why keep the
lights on at full brightness? With Mini 300 LED
Generation-2, light levels can be dimmed, one
pump at a time, when there are no customers
at a setting you can choose, typically down to
30% of the normal light level. This is still enough
to create perception of being open and provide
feeling of safety.

\\ Case Study
GULF Station
Location:
Holtsville, NY
Lighting Turnkey Project Management:
Blair Company
save
>60%
Philips and Blair worked with the GULF station owner to strategize a
complete energy upgrade for the canopy, area and store. Partnering with
Philips, Blair developed a turnkey proposal to replace the current
lighting with energy efficient alternatives like LED.
How did they do it?
After an extensive audit, Philips and Blair made a proposal with new
lighting, like replacing the 400W Metal Halide fixtures in the canopy
with the new Mini 300 LED 137W. For the interior of the store,
both energy efficient fluorescent and LED lamps were used to reduce
energy consumption. Providing this as a turnkey project, a clear
proposal was created that included the lighting, labor, utility and tax
rebates and a guaranteed payback so the owner had one point of
contact for this renovation project and a ROI of >20%.
What was the result?
GULF Holtsville has made substantial gains in energy efficiency and
improvements in aesthetics and visual performance for the customers
due to significantly increased light levels.The scheme has created a
more welcome environment.The total energy consumption has
been reduced by 62%.
