Pay-As-You-Save schemes
Many companies would love to implement cost saving schemes however they do not have the capital budget to do so. A Pay-As-You-Save is the answer to this problem.
A maintenance-free solution
With high costs of replacement lamps, access equipment and labour, conventional systems can create a significant maintenance overhead. Powerboss Eluma will deliver a virtually maintenance-free solution.
Financial benefits
Remember - The cost of implementing Eluma is not new expenditure. Eluma will pay for itself out of the savings delivered.
Consider for one moment how you could increase your company’s profits by the £87,000 in the example above. Firstly, you could increase annual sales through investment in inventory, staffing costs, opening a new outlet and other sales related activities. For many companies at 5% net profit, an increase in turnover of £1,750,000 would be required to create £87,000 in profit.
Alternatively your company could make guaranteed savings to existing expenditure. Which is easiest to achieve and a guarantee of increased profits?
It is common that in many organisations, there is little awareness of the running cost of lighting; however it can account for 50% - 60% of the electrical energy costs of warehouse, distribution and large warehouse type retail facilities. Powerboss Eluma is an intelligent lighting fixture, which typically delivers savings of between 60% and 80% of the lighting costs in this type of facility. In addition to substantially reducing running costs, Eluma will reduce maintenance and re-lamping costs dramatically.
Immediate cost savings of 50%
Even at maximum brightness Powerboss Eluma costs less than 50% to run than conventional HID (metal halide or high pressure sodium) or fluorescent lighting.
Additional financial savings - typically between 60% and 80% in total
In the vast majority of facilities, there is potential for additional savings to be made through the intelligence of each Eluma luminaire. If your lights can be automatically switched off/on with occupancy or dimmed when there is daylight then additional running costs can be saved.
