If your business is still using old halogen warehouse lights, it’s time to switch to energy-saving LEDs. They use less power and will save you money.

Commercial LED high bays use less power, so they can save your business money on power bills and maintenance.

If you are running a business in Victoria, it is the best time to switch to warehouse LED lights.

Under the state-operated Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) program, formerly known as the VEET (Victorian Energy Efficiency Target) scheme, businesses are eligible for significant rebates when they upgrade to energy-efficient LED lights.

Under the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) scheme, we install high-quality, long-lasting LED high bay lights free of cost for eligible customers (subject to meeting the free high bay eligibility criteria).

We have an expansive network of certified, local A-grade electricians and VEU-approved LED High Bay products.

Our comprehensive and easy-to-understand upgrade process kicks off with a free, no-commitment site assessment followed by hassle-free LED lighting replacement and full post-installation support. You can trust that our team will be with you every step of the way, from the initial assessment to long after your new LED lights are up and running.

When compared to Halogen High Bays, there are many reasons more and more businesses are switching to LED high bays. LED high bays are more energy-efficient lighting solutions, and they have a very long lamp life.

LED high bays have over 50,000 hours of lifespan, which means their performance is better than other lighting fixtures. Long-life also means less frequency of maintenance and replacement.

In addition to long life, LED high bay lights consume very little electricity yet produce higher luminous output. Despite more brightness, LED high bays run on very little power and generate very little heat in comparison to halogen high bays, which are infamous for high energy consumption and heat emission.
But My Current Warehouse Lights are Working Fine!

The warehouse is a unique building and thus has unique lighting requirements. Considering the large surface area and the average height of the warehouse where heavy-duty tasks are performed, lighting remains the most important aspect.

Poor lighting can affect workers’ productivity along with an increased risk of accidents. Some notable benefits of upgrading traditional warehouse lighting to LED high bays are:

  • They are 80% more energy-efficient than metal halide or mercury vapour high bays
  • LED high bays boast 150 lumens per watt lighting efficiency with a wider throw angle
  • They have a long operating life, reducing periodic maintenance and fixture replacement costs
  • LED high bays are lightweight, weighing just 3.78 kg
  • The basic structure of LED technology is robust; hence, LED high bays are more resistant to vibrations and external stress

Government Rebates For Commercial Warehouse Lighting

The Victorian Energy Upgrades program can help businesses cut their energy bills and greenhouse gas emissions. Businesses can save up to 80% on their lighting costs by installing energy-efficient lighting technology such as LEDs.

Lighting technology has seen an enormous development in the last few years. LED light fixtures are not just more energy-efficient than traditional light bulbs such as halogen, incandescent, and CFL bulbs. but they also offer better light output, longer life, and instant glow times.

LED lighting also helps in correcting the power factor to the ideal range — close to unity. In warehouses, a low power factor is a sign of energy inefficiency, as your energy retailer may impose a fine for wasted energy due to the low power factor.

Victorian businesses that have warehouses with old lights such as incandescent lamps, halogen high bays, and fluorescent tubes in their establishments are eligible for free LED replacement under the VEU scheme.

The Victorian government, in its purview of the scheme, is committed to helping Victorian businesses — by offering free LED lights for businesses — reduce their energy usage, costs, and greenhouse gas emissions through discounts on energy-efficient products and services. We work with Glow Green Pty Ltd – an Accredited Provider (AP) under the VEU program.

How to Benefit from Government’s Commercial LED Upgrade Program?

LED lighting is very cost-effective compared to all other lighting options. But how do you avail the benefits of the government rebate scheme for LED replacement?

VEU program

You can participate in the government rebate program if you have a warehouse(s) with old high bays in Victoria. We remove all old high bay lights from your warehouse and install VEU-approved Commercial LED high bays FREE of cost to meet the efficiency, quality, and safety benchmarks set by the Essential Services Commission (ESC).

We create VEECs when we replace old, inefficient lights with VEU-approved energy-efficient LED products. These certificates are then sold to energy retailers, who are obligated to purchase a certain number of VEECs every year to offset their carbon emissions.

This process completely covers the cost or subsidy of your LED upgrade. All you need to do is sign the VEEC assignment form once the installation is complete. This way, you will allow us to create VEECs for LED installation done at your warehouse.
