Energy Efficiency
The indoor swimming pool at HCCC was outdated and inefficient. The college needed help in implementing a new lighting system that would be energy efficient, provide higher and more uniform light levels, and be able to utilize the existing electrical system.

Eastern Energy Solutions, Inc. was selected to implement their custom designed and fabricated lighting system. The results were an aesthetically pleasing lighting system that is providing the targeted light levels at an energy savings of 73%!
