‘Tis the Season to Make Christmas Bright with LED Lighting!
LED Edmonton would like to showcase how these holiday projects are using LED lighting to make the season bright! While using LED lighting solutions, these projects are saving energy, and thus, saving money.
Edmonton – The Alberta Legislature
The Alberta Legislature has decked out the grounds with LED lighting solutions in the spirit of making the season bright! Facilities Manager for the Legislature grounds Loretta Bieneck explains, “this year we have a 64 foot white spruce that was selected by the Alberta Forestry Department, and my fabulous team will have 180,000 LED lights lighting the grounds every night until the end of January.”
Whether you are interested in learning more about this iconic landmark, looking for a fabulous gift for your home or someone on your list, or simply want to be enveloped by the festive season, make sure to take a trip to the Alberta Legislature this holiday season.

New York – Rockefeller Christmas Tree
On November 29th 2017, New York lit its annual Rockefeller Christmas tree. This year, the tree was decorated with LED lights, which is saving the city an outstanding amount of energy and money. Mayor Bill de Blasio flipped the switch at 8:55 p.m., illuminating the 75 foot tall, 12 plus ton Norway spruce decorated with 50,000 multicolored LED lights – yes, you read that correctly, 50,000 LED lights!
Samantha Fettner, a 33 year old from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, who flew into NYC to view the Rockefeller Christmas tree lighting explains, “I definitely think it’s going to get the Christmas spirit going!”

Chicago – Hancock Skyscraper
The Hancock skyscraper in Chicago had a LED updo just in time for the holiday season! As read on LEDs Magazine, the SSL building crown lighting allows the owners of the John Hancock Center to dynamically change the iconic lighting to celebrate holidays, changes of the season or Chicago’s popular sports teams.
“The new LED lighting replaced a legacy Crown of Lights that surround the building on the 99th floor and that can be seen from 360° for miles. The new solid state lighting (SSL) system is controlled via DMX by an engineer sitting in a comfy office on the 16th floor of the skyscraper.” To view a video of the skyscraper, click here.
We hope your holiday season is as bright as these LED lighting projects! If you would like to join in on all the LED lighting fun, visit our website LED Edmonton to order online, or visit our sister site and contact us for more information: Smart Energy Alternates Website!
