Orion’s industry leading LED luminaires were chosen over
competitors’ less efficient products, including LED replacement
tubes, because they deliver more lumens per watt and provide the
highest return on investment and lowest long term cost of ownership
available today. Orion products are engineered for fast and easy
installation that does not disrupt ongoing activities, an essential
factor for Navy facilities. Orion’s products are manufactured in
the U.S., which enables the company to offer some of the industry’s
fastest delivery times and allows the Navy to benefit from the
energy savings sooner. Orion is a U.S. Government Services
Administration (GSA) Schedule 84 ENABLE contract holder and is on
the Department of Energy’s Qualified List of Energy Services
Companies as a provider of LED products under the strict
requirements of the U.S. Navy and other federal facilities.
Orion CEO, John Scribante, commented, “We are very proud to
serve our country and to build upon our 15-year relationship
serving the lighting retrofit needs of the U.S. Navy. The Orion
team delivers the best in performance, energy efficiency, quality,
ease of installation and customer service. Being repeatedly
selected to serve the needs of the U.S. Armed Forces is one of the
greatest honors we can receive, and we are motivated to earn their
trust each and every day.”
Including this project, Orion has secured a total of $13.8
million in lighting retrofit projects for 15 naval facilities of
various sizes and mission scopes since 2003. The projects have
utilized a wide array of energy-efficient lighting products,
including Orion’s ISON™ and APOLLO® LED High Bay products, APOLLO®
LDR® Troffer Retrofit products and a variety of LED exterior
lighting products, all of which are qualified for installation at
Navy facilities.
