The Sheraton Greensboro is the largest hotel and convention center between Washington, DC and Atlanta, GA. As such a large venue, the hotel could really benefit from cutting back on its energy and maintenance costs.
The hotel was retrofitted with over 400 Cree LR6 six-inch LED downlights. The Cree LR6 generates white light in a new way that enables an unprecedented combination of light output, high efficacy, beautiful color and affordability.
The Sheraton Greensboro chose Cree LED Lighting after compact fluorescent light bulbs did not perform as well as expected. The hotel will recoup its costs in less than two years thanks to decreased energy consumption and reduced maintenance costs.
