Better Lights, Brighter Futures
Creating Solutions to Capture Savings
Keeping the lights on in K-12 schools across the U.S. is big business.
With a consumption rate of $6 billion per year, that equates to roughly $100,000 for a 50,000 square foot campus. For larger institutions, the statistics are staggering.
The average school runs:

600 lighting fixtures

Lights run for 13.5 hours a day

Lights are in use 260 days a year

Average energy cost is $0.12 per kWh
Campus
Upgrades
Made Easy

Upgrading your lighting system doesn’t need to be a decades-in-the-making decision. Nor should it break the bank.
Campus lighting can be complex, and FES believes that the decision to upgrade to LED lighting should be simple.
FES is lighting made simple. At every step of the way, we ensure an effortless transition.
Energy-efficient lighting:
- Saves money and energy

Simple Solutions with Proven Results
FES partners with public, private, and parochial schools nationwide to provide lighting upgrades with zero investment. That’s right - no upfront cost to upgrade your entire campus with new LED lights.
To date, FES has partnered with nearly 200 schools to achieve massive collective savings.




More Reasons
to Love LED

The truth is you care about the quality of your campus just as much as you care about the quality of your students’ education. Our Lighting-as-a-Service sets you apart from other schools, adding to your overall appeal.
On top of that, switching to LED will:
- Enhance lighting efficiency
- Improve safety for drop-offs and pickups
- Lower kilowatt consumption
- Provide long-term savings on maintenance
Many schools have an on-staff facility manager responsible for campus-wide maintenance. With traditional lighting systems, countless resources are spent on constant (and unpredictable!) maintenance.
The average school:




Bill Blum, Kennedy Catholic Family of Schools
Our new LED lighting has added so much brightness to our buildings and parking lots. It has been incredible to work with FES and Enertech for maintenance requests. Everything is timely and everyone is so nice to work with. The biggest benefit for our school system has been the cost savings. In just two years with this program, we have been able to reduce our energy costs by 20%. Everyone has been wonderful!

Keri Larson, The Goddard School
The building is brighter and lighting more consistent throughout. Can't wait to see the savings! They were great to work with -- from beginning to end they handled it all professionally.

Our classrooms are brighter, we are using less energy and my electric bill is lower. The FES team was very professional and easy to work with. They worked around my schedule and took care of everything.
