LOS ANGELES, July 20 /PRNewswire/ -- When it comes to energy savings the Los Angeles based ReGreen Corporation continues to provide clients with unparalleled reductions in energy costs.  Irvine Company, one of the largest commercial and residential property management companies on the west coast, retained ReGreen to retrofit its lighting systems at the Westwood Gateway Towers in Los Angeles, yielding an estimated yearly savings of 35%, over $160,000 annually.  The 3, Class A, high rise buildings consist of over 820,000 sq. ft. and 3 parking garages, and is Energy Star labeled.

The main goal of every energy reduction project is to measurably reduce the kilowatt-hours (KWh) and kilowatt (KW) demand without reducing the quality of light.  ReGreen not only accomplished this goal but they also helped the Irvine Company qualify for appropriate rebates from the LADWP's CLEO Program that helped subsidized over 60% of the cost for upgrades.

And the savings are not just measured in dollars and cents.  By replacing all of the existing light fixtures on the property with the latest T8 fluorescent technology, ReGreen was able to reduce CO2 emissions by almost 20 million pounds!  The annual energy savings experienced by Westwood Gateway is equivalent to powering 85 homes and removing 198 cars from the road.
