O’Hare
International Airport is ranked the 6th busiest airport in the world according
to Airports Council International (as of 2013); Chicago being the third most
populous city in the United States after New York City and Los Angeles. The goal
was to provide energy saving lighting solutions for O’Hare International Airport
Terminal 2 in Chicago, Illinois USA. This would replace a total of 690
traditional lighting fixtures with LED High Bay lighting fixtures. These were
allocated in Terminal 2 and other areas of the airport to provide brighter and
reliable lighting for visitors and locals arriving and departing the airport
providing higher visibility for any type of traffic. This switch aimed to reduce
yearly energy consumption considering lights needed to be running 24/7 while
enhancing safety and security for the area. This switch saves the city’s annual
expenses on electric bills for public facilities while being environmentally
friendly for the city. In a place where there’s a constant high traffic of
people, a transition like this could influence more public facilities and
private sectors to want to switch to greener lighting.
