Trey Smith, general manager of Ivan Smith Furniture, receives an incentive check for the warehouse lighting retrofit from Jeff Thigpen, SWEPCO energy efficiency program coordinator

Ivan Smith Furniture received an incentive check in the amount of $22,546 for the lighting retrofit at its central warehouse located at 5434 Technology Drive in Shreveport, LA.

The retrofit included the replacement of over 460 inefficient fixtures with 334 new, high efficiency LED fixtures. Post-retrofit, the warehouse has advanced lighting controls and motion sensing technology.

The project is expected to save Ivan Smith Furniture over 270,000 kWh each year in energy used, which will result in over $20,000 a year in reduced energy costs.
