Energy Savings Upgrade Ongoing at Bremen Schools

The Bremen School Board members are looking to save money in a lighting upgrade project.

Superintendent Dr. Jim White said the project will make quite a difference.

“We are converting to LED lighting which will save us tremendously on energy costs,” said Dr. White. “Given the retrofit cost I’m anticipating saving about $20,000 annually in energy and it will have about a three-and-a-half year payback. The life of the bulbs is anywhere between eight to 12 years. We anticipate having that done by the end of the summer.”
