February 23, 2010... Albeo Technologies retrofit luminaires were used to replace the conventional lighting at Thomas Jefferson Primary School in Peoria, Illinois. Albeo estimates that the LED lighting retrofit at Thomas Jefferson will reduce the school's lighting energy load by 49%.

Albeo of Boulder, Colorado USA, contends that Thomas Jefferson is the first school entirely lit with white-LED Solid-State Lighting (SSL) technology. Thomas Jefferson Primary School is reportedly undergoing extensive reconstruction to repair damage caused by fire in November of 2008. Included in the renovation is the replacement of over 600 T12 fluorescent fixtures with Albeo’s dimmable T8LED Troffers.

Dave Ryon, District #150's Director of Capital Programs with direction from the Board of Education, specified LED lighting for project because of the benefits and sustainability of solid-state technology. Albeo News Release
