November 27, 2006—Axis Technologies Group, Inc. has announced that the Lincoln Electric System, an electric utility company, published a case study on energy savings following the installation of the Axis Technologies Dimming/Daylight Harvesting (DDH) ballasts in their headquarters in Lincoln, NE.
An entire floor of the building was retrofitted with the Axis 4-lamp ballast system and a comparative case study followed.
The study showed a 69% lighting energy savings was achieved after the previous standard T12 ballasts were replaced by the more efficient Axis DDH ballasts. The study also indicated a simple payback period of approximately 18 months due to the combined lighting energy savings, and air conditioning savings due to the lowered heat output after the Axis DDH ballast was installed.
“LES has endorsed the Axis DDH ballast and is recommending them to their customers – this is the first and only product that LES has ever endorsed” said Kip Hirschbach, CEO of Axis Technologies Group, Inc. We are especially excited to have an endorsement like this from an actual electric company and we are confident this will bring us a multitude of new customers.” he added.
Axis Technology, Inc. designs, manufactures and markets a proprietary line of energy-saving and daylight harvesting electronic dimming ballasts for the commercial lighting industry. For more information, see the company’s Web site.
