University of West London: Case Study


The University of West London (UWL) implemented a decarbonisation project aimed at achieving net zero carbon emissions by 2030.

As part of a broader range of decarbonisation measures encompassing various renewable energy sources and technologies, L McCann Electrical were responsible for LED lighting upgrades across 2 University campuses. The overall project was estimated to reduce over 500 tonnes of CO2 annually, achieving the highly commended designation in the Decarbonisation Project category of the Energy Managers Association’s (EMA) Energy Management Awards. L McCann Electrical helped UWL to achieve:

Significant carbon emissions reduction and annual energy costs

Reduced energy consumption of lighting 60-70%

Upgrades to ageing lighting infrastructure including controls

Improved comfort levels for staff and building users

Improved quality of lighting for building occupants

Enhanced learning environment for students

Reduced maintenance costs
