Starbucks Switches to LED Lighting
by Brian Yalung on Friday, November 13th, 2009
Starbucks has been known to take its own initiative as far as being eco-friendly is concerned and apparently this development should be considered the big switch. Over 8,000 stores will now be lit up by LED lighting which many may see as a great initiative to save on some energy costs and of course preach LED light alternatives.
The LED light swap will cut energy consumption by about 7% at each store, and is part of the company’s goal to cut total energy consumption by 25% by the end of 2010. With a company this size, there are a lot of ways the carbon footprint can be cut down inexpensively.
