Case Study

The Opportunity

Lippert Components manufactures and supplies highly engineered, high-quality components to the recreational vehicle, marine, automotive and building products industries. With over 90 facilities in 17 states, Canada and worldwide, Lippert Components has made the choice to prioritize social impact initiatives.

To help save on energy costs, Lippert Components got in touch with Indiana Michigan Power (I&M) to discuss their energy efficiency opportunities.


The Project

It all started with Lippert Component’s initiative to identify high-impact, cost-saving projects! One of those projects proposed was updating existing lighting to energy-efficient LED tubes throughout the warehouse.

Working with I&M, Lippert was able to upgrade the inefficient lighting to new, rebate-eligible LEDs. Based on the savings achieved from this project and the end result, Lippert Components is looking for additional ways to utilize commercial rebate programs to make energy-efficient upgrades in other facilities.

“Working with the I&M rebate programs enabled us to provide brighter, safer work spaces for our teams, while reducing the maintenance needed. The program provided a favorable return on investment and we’re excited to duplicate this project throughout our other facilities.”

— Richard Wallock, Facility Manager, Lippert Components Plant 50-W


Project Results and Stats

The new lighting is estimated to reduce the facility’s annual energy use by over 1,000,000 kWh, saving Lippert Components over $110,000 a year.

Since completing the initial project, Lippert Components worked with I&M to upgrade another project and is looking to complete lighting retrofits at other facilities in the near future.
