Applications for light-emitting diode lighting technologies abound in outdoor facilities of all kinds. Sporting and recreation facilities especially can benefit from the inclusion of energy-efficient lighting that can keep courts lit up late into the night. Illuminations USA is very experienced with projects requiring late-night lighting for pools and more.
It’s good to see that major American universities are getting in on the act as well. As this blog post on GoDuke.com reports, Duke University in Durham, NC, will be the home of the first-ever NCAA Division 1 outdoor venue to be lit entirely using LED lighting products.
Williams Field at Jack Katz Stadium is a multipurpose outdoor sporting facility that serves as the home field for the Duke University women’s field hockey team. In November of this year, the facility will host the 2014 ACC Field Hockey Championships. This remodeling project will also benefit many of the university’s students, as the field has been used for general campus recreation as well as club sports in the past.
The field renovations will involve removal of the 1,500-watt metal halide lighting fixtures, which had been most recently installed in the facility. The LED system will use only one-third of the original amount of lighting fixtures but will provide improved nighttime lighting at while reducing energy costs by up to 70 percent.
