LABATT BREWERY CANADA INSTALLS PRISTINE LED LIGHTING SYSTEMS IN CANADIAN BREWING FACILITIES TO REALIZE UP TO 75% ENERGY CONSUMPTION REDUCTION WITH ASSISTANCE OF LONDON HYDRO REBATE PROGRAM.
LONDON, ON, July 24, 2012 – Pristine Led, Inc. is pleased to announce that a partnership with Labatt Brewery, The City of London, London Hydro, Ontario Power Authority and the Government of Ontario – Ministry of Energy to install and verify Pristine’s LED lighting systems in the Labatt London plant has produced excellent results. Labatt has realized a significant lighting energy consumption reduction of up to 75% along with a dramatic lowering of maintenance and replacement costs. The plant has been retrofitted from fluorescent and metal halide lighting to LED over the last several months and work has now started, on converting the Labatt Brewery Edmonton facility due to the excellent results in London.
The Ontario Power Authority, City of London, London Hydro and the Ontario Minister of Energy strongly supported the program with the application of the SaveOnEnergy rebate program. This program is available through local utility companies to assist companies to convert to energy saving technologies by offering a rebate on the cost of product and installation for approved projects. By switching to LED lighting, Labatt was able to have a measurable impact on the amount of energy consumed and will greatly assist the City of London in reducing the demand on its electricity system. The saved energy can be diverted to growth areas without increasing demand on the system and will help to reduce incidents of “brown-outs” during peak demand periods. admin@pristineled.com www.pristineled.com

He further indicated that, “we are working with numerous companies and governments across Canada and the US with continued demand and growth for our Windsor based manufacturing plant.” It makes us proud to support the local economy through the creation of jobs and opportunities with our suppliers in our home community.”
