Why Iowa Businesses Are Switching from Fluorescent to LED Lighting
If your business is still using fluorescent lighting, now’s the perfect time to make the switch to LED — and Iowa businesses can get instant discounts through MidAmerican and Alliant Energy’s efficiency programs.
Why Switching from Fluorescent to LED Matters
Fluorescent lights have been a staple in offices, warehouses, and retail spaces for decades — but they come with downsides that cost your business money and energy every single day.
Compared to LEDs, fluorescents:
- Burn out faster and require frequent replacements
- Contain mercury, making disposal costly and unsafe
- Use up to 70% more electricity for the same brightness
- Emit harsh light and flicker, which can cause headaches or eye strain
By switching to energy-efficient LED fixtures, your business can lower monthly electric bills, reduce maintenance costs, and create a brighter, more professional environment for employees and customers.
Benefits of LED Lighting for Businesses
- Instant Energy Savings – LEDs use up to 75% less energy than fluorescents, leading to substantial cost savings year-round.
- Longer Lifespan – LEDs can last 50,000+ hours, minimizing downtime and replacement expenses.
- Better Light Quality – Crisp, flicker-free illumination improves visibility, safety, and comfort in workspaces.
- Eco-Friendly – LEDs contain no mercury and help reduce your carbon footprint.
- Eligible for Iowa Energy Rebates – Businesses in Iowa can qualify for instant LED discounts through MidAmerican Energy and Alliant Energy programs.
