60–72% reduction in lighting electricity vs metal halide or high-pressure sodium. A 200-stall lot saves $4,800–$11,000 annually in electricity, paying back fixture cost in 2.5–4.5 years before rebates.
What rebates apply to LED parking lot lighting?

Should LED parking lot lighting include smart controls?
Yes for any lot over 80 stalls. Motion-dimming controls add 18–28% energy savings on top of LED conversion. Networked controls also enable remote monitoring and fault detection, eliminating most night-watch maintenance calls.
What's the photometric standard for parking lot lighting?
IES RP-20 recommends 1.0 footcandle minimum and 4:1 max-to-min uniformity ratio for general parking. Activity-level areas (entries, payment kiosks, ADA stalls) need 2.0+ footcandles. Photometric modeling is included in every install we run.
