Green Team Student Assist Isle of Lights Conversion from Incandescent to LED

Green Team students, along with other volunteers from Southwestern and the community collaborated to help change light bulbs on the Winnie the Pooh display for the annual Isle of Lights. The light bulbs on the display were changed from incandescent bulbs to high efficiency LED bulbs.

The Winnie the Pooh display contains approximately 233 lights. The change from incandescent bulbs to LED should save over 303 kilowatt-hours during the 6-week Isle of Lights display this year alone. The Isle of Lights committee has converted 5 of the displays to LED light
bulbs thus far for an estimated yearly savings of over 3,500 kWh in electricity.
