Saving energy at Culture Fusion

We have recently completed a major upgrade programme replacing all non LED lighting throughout the YMCA Culture Fuson Building with LED energy efficient lighting. The works were completed thanks to a grant from The VCSE Energy Efficiency Scheme which was launched in 2023 to help voluntary, community, and social enterprise (VCSE) organisations in England improve their energy efficiency.

LED lighting uses less than 80% of energy compared to the standard incandescent bulb. The improvements are estimated to bring about an annual reduction in energy use of 30,349.22kWh which represents a carbon saving of approx. 5 tonnes per year.  In addition to this we should see a cost saving on energy bills which will help with the current energy price crisis which is impacting us all.  A much needed saving for both the planet and purse!
