FCA US Installs Intelligent LED Lighting Systems in Its Manufacturing Facilities

Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) US announced a bright new year with two of its facilities in Detroit installed with intelligent systems integrated with wireless controls and LED lighting.

In order to enhance power efficiency and employee productivity, FCA US has installed more than 35,000 LED fixtures in more than half of its manufacturing facilities, two Mopar Parts Distribution Centers and 87 dealerships. The two metro Detroit operations, Jefferson North Assembly Plant and Warren Stamping Plant that recently installed with intelligent lighting systems are expected to save at least 50 percent energy cost.

These projects were achieved following the "FCA Bright Initiative" launched in 2017. FCA US has transformed operation facilities of the company into LED lighting to provide customers and dealership employees with a brighter and safer environment at night.

By 2020, FCA aims to achieve a 30 percent reduction in energy consumed per vehicle produced versus 2010 at mass-market vehicle assembly and stamping plants worldwide. By the end of 2017, FCA's energy consumption was down 24 percent compared with 2010.

"Making the move now to the most advanced LED lights with wireless control capabilities gives us the ability to track our real-time consumption and react, respond and customize our energy use quicker than ever before," said Kevin Dunbar, corporate energy manager at FCA US LLC. "LEDs also mimic natural light, which has shown to increase our employees' comfort and productivity. This transition is just one element that helps modernize our operations while also reducing our environmental footprint and operational costs."
