The challenge
Bakersfield, CA
Project Budget: $174,546.62
Customer Rebates Obtained: $15,306.60
Annual Energy Savings: $35,685.04
The solution
NRG Incentives packaged a full LED retrofit across the dining, buffet, arcade, and back-of-house areas — warm, inviting light for guests and efficient, low-maintenance fixtures for staff — and secured a $15,307 utility rebate to offset the cost.
The results
The upgrade delivers $35,685 in annual energy savings against a $174,547 project investment — net $159,240 after the $15,307 utility rebate — recovering the net investment in roughly 4.46 yrs, then compounding into net savings while the new lighting keeps working.
