Town of Henrietta is upgrading the lighting equipment at the Library building. Approximately 150 of the older 4-lamp fluorescent fixtures will be retrofitted with new high efficiency 4-lamp T8 fixtures. Each new lighting fixture will save 80 watts compared to the old fixtures. Total annual energy savings is estimated at 48,000 kWh.

The town will use Federal Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) funds to help pay for the cost of upgrading the lighting equipment. Additionally, the new lighting equipment will qualify the town for an additional $5,000 of rebates from the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA).
