LED Upgrade ROI Calculator

Calculator for office LED upgrade energy, carbon and payback estimates.

This sets the recommended light level automatically so the user does not need to know it.
Approximate office floor area.
2.5 m UK average if the exact ceiling height is unknown.
Used to estimate current W/m2 before LED upgrade.
Adjusts the artificial lighting allowance.
Use a typical panel or linear fitting if unknown.
Used for LED running cost and ROI estimate.
Allows for light loss over time. Lower factors need more initial lumens.
Used only for a rough payback estimate.
Early-stage guide only. Final office specification still depends on layout, reflectance, ceiling detail, spacing, glare, optics, emergency provision and control strategy.
Office lighting answer

Calculator ready an office result.

Enter the workplace assumptions, then calculate the likely LED load, annual energy reduction and running-cost saving.

Annual energy reduction
--%

No result has been calculated yet.

Office lighting results will appear here after calculation, including required lux, lumen target, estimated LED load and annual energy saving.
Recommended target
--

Set by the selected office context.

Light required
--

Area, target lux and ceiling-height allowance.

Estimated LED load
--

Indicative load from the LED scheme.

Annual energy saving
--

Against the selected existing lighting type.

Energy comparison

Existing lighting versus LED scheme.

The calculated comparison will show the existing load, the proposed LED load and the likely saving pattern.

Annual cost saving
--

Based on the selected hours per day, days per week and electricity tariff.

Current annual cost
--

Estimated from existing W/m2.

LED annual cost
--

Estimated from LED fitting load.

Saving rate
--%

Reduction against current annual energy use.

Reference targets
Right office baseline before fitting selection.
Desks

Workstation areas commonly start around 500 lux, with careful review of screen use, glare and uniformity.

Meeting

Meeting rooms often need comfortable general lighting, flexible controls and a scheme that can support presentation use.

Support

Breakout, reception and circulation zones can use lower targets, but should still coordinate emergency provision and controls.

The calculator produces office enquiry details with area, recommended light level, output load and energy saving estimate for early product selection.

Each calculated product card leads with a quotation request, with product information, options and quotation detail kept close to the estimate.
