Lighting Solution Implementation at Cornell University

This case study outlines the lighting upgrade project undertaken by Cornell University, focusing on the implementation of LEOTEK's Arieta lighting fixture. The objective was to replace outdated high-intensity discharge (HID) fixtures that were inefficient and difficult to maintain. Cornell sought a modern, low-profile lighting solution that would enhance the aesthetic of its historic campus while reducing energy consumption and maintenance requirements. The Arieta fixture was selected for its architectural design, durability, and energy efficiency, along with a standard 10-year warranty. The successful upgrade was facilitated by a partnership between Cornell, GoTToGo Electric, and LEOTEK, leveraging years of collaboration and trust. The case study details the reasons behind Cornell's choice of the Arieta, including its compliance with Buy American Act (BABA) requirements, ease of installation, and reliable support from the manufacturer. The project exemplifies how trusted relationships and quality solutions can lead to successful outcomes in campus infrastructure improvements.
