Implementation and phasing
The project consists of two phases and total implementation will take more than two and a half years.
Phase 1: April 2023 - August 2024
In the first phase, LEDs GO is under implementation in the four major buildings on campus. A total of 11,320 luminaires have been retrofitted in these buildings and annual savings of 1,730,000 kWh will be achieved. This saving is comparable to the average annual consumption of 700 households.
- Huygens building: 4660 luminaires, saving 900,00 kWh
- Grotius building: 1861 fixtures, saving 175,000 kWh
- Elinor Ostrom Building/Gymnasion: 2107 luminaires, saving 350,000 kWh
- University Library: 2692 luminaires, saving 305,000 kWh
Earlier, the lighting in the sports fields, car parks, lecture halls and greenhouse complex was replaced. An additional annual saving of 400,000 kWh, comparable to the consumption of over 160 households.
Phase 2: September 2024 - end of 2025
In the second phase, the remaining, smaller buildings on campus will be fitted with LED lighting. A further 4,031 luminaires will then be retrofitted and annual savings of 744,000 kWh will be achieved. This saving is comparable to the average annual consumption of 300 households.
- Thomas v. Aquinostraat 1: 933 luminaires, 131,403 kWh savings
- Aula: 431 luminaires, 20,241 kWh savings
- HFML (Magnets lab): 330 luminaires, 32,292 kWh savings
- Pavilion & Student Church: 415 luminaires, 34,652 kWh savings
- Transitorium: 616 luminaires, 90,070 kWh savings
- Nursery: 287 luminaires, 19,378 kWh savings
- Trigon: 1019 luminaires, 148,328 kWh savings
