Free LED High Bays for Warehouses, Factories, and Retail
If your commercial setup is still employing metal halide or mercury vapour high bays, it's time to upgrade to Free LED high bays. That's all there is to it!
LED High Bay Lights for Warehouses, Storage Units, Manufacturing Units, and Factories are available for free.
High bays have been the most often changed product under the Victorian Energy Upgrades (VEU) and Victorian Energy Efficiency Target (VEET) in recent years. These are typically encountered in commercial settings. Typical examples are warehouses, storage facilities, industries (of any scale), retail, processing units, manufacturing units, factories, and stadiums. Non-LED high bays often use a 400W mercury vapour or metal halide bulb, which consumes a lot of power.
Not only do these lights waste a lot of energy, but they also generate a lot of heat, which might result in a workplace fire. As a result, they are one of the most critical components in the VEU upgrade programme for transitioning from non-LED to LED lighting.
Why LED High Bay Lights?
Industries, manufacturing units, storage units, and factories – the terms alone conjure up images of vast units tasked with a big jobs, requiring big commitment, requiring a large amount of labour, requiring no time to waste, and requiring an abundance of lights, large lights! The majority of these facilities have a small maintenance crew, and no one wants to be constantly working on the lights.
Given the size and capacity of these facilities, one can only imagine the amount of energy required to keep them operational. The most common sort of light utilised for illumination is referred to as high bays. They are infamous for their artificial orange glow, inadequate light generation, limited lifespan, excessive heat output, and high maintenance requirements.
A few of our clients recalled instances where high bays regularly dimmed out on multiple occasions. They most certainly had to have someone go up and change the bulbs on them more than once a year. Something to keep in mind - high bays receive their name from the fact that they are installed high in the ceiling, making it difficult to repair or replace the lights. To complete the work, a scissor or boom lift is required, which is an additional expense.
Prior to the invention of LED high bays, some facilities would replace outdated bulbs – relamping the facility or swapping out complete fixtures – once every year and a half to two years using traditional lighting. A single damaged bulb is believed to expose employees to mercury, which can induce severe poisoning symptoms, some of which can be life-threatening.
LED high bays/fixtures have no mercury or other dangerous compounds, making them a significantly safer option for industrial applications. Due to their long-life performance, low maintenance requirements, and increased visibility, LED high bays are critical when it comes to the short- and long-term safety and health of industrial employees.
While the majority of us recognise the benefits of LED high bays, we've seen several clients who would decline the LED upgrade offer due to the initial expense. What has truly changed the landscape is the availability of free installation under the VEU government initiative. Because they are the only industrial lights that consume the most energy in comparison to other types of lighting such as fluorescents, low bays, and so on.
We provide LED High Bays from the industry's leading manufacturers.
With government incentives, these lights are now easily affordable, and with our limited-time offer on LED high bays with GREEN HYPE, where we're replacing existing high bays with premium brand commercial LED high bays from Philips and Ledvance Osram, you can get the product and installation for free.
New LED high bays provide the flexibility to dim and switch off loads when not in use via scheduling or integrated occupancy and daylight sensors, substantially decreasing energy usage.
When compared to older mercury vapour or metal halide high bays, typical LED luminaires save around 80% on energy costs.

Frequently Asked Questions regarding Free LED High Bays
Question: Is the VEU program's LED high bay replacement programme free?
Answer: Yes. To qualify for a free LED high bay replacement, your organisation must have a minimum of ten halogen or HID high bays that need to be replaced.
Question: Is my business eligible for the scheme's free LED high bay replacement?
Answer: Yes, if your business is located in the state of Victoria and utilises older high bays.
Question: What situations call for the employment of high bays?
Answer: High bays are utilised in a variety of commercial and industrial settings, including warehouses, workshops, factories, manufacturing and storage facilities, and assembly lines. Additionally, high bays are seen in major recreational facilities and gyms.
Question: Are there any design alternatives available for LED high bay lights?
Answer: LED high bay lights are available in a range of shapes and sizes, including UFO, rectangular, and linear. LED technology enables manufacturers to create high bays in a variety of shapes and sizes.
Question: Whom should I contact regarding the VEU Program's replacement of my HID/metal halide high bays?
Answer: You should contact an approved provider (AP) or their representative(s) in Victoria to arrange for a no-cost replacement of your existing high bays with LED high bays. To confirm the quality of items being replaced, consult the Essential Services Commission's (ESC) list of permitted products. Our LED products are VEU-approved.
Question: What is the distinction between a low and a high bay?
Answer: The noticeable distinction between low bay and high bay is the height of the mounting brackets. Low bays are designed for places with low ceilings (less than 20 feet high), whereas high bays are designed for locations with high ceilings (more than 20 feet high). When mounting over 20 feet, high bays should always be utilised to eliminate dark areas and insufficient light homogeneity in the work area.
Question: How much money can I save by switching to LED high bay lights?
Answer: The amount of money saved frequently relies on factors such as the number of hours per day used, the cost of energy per unit (Kwh), and the wattage of the LED high bay lights installed. In most cases, LED high bay lights may save you more than 50% on your energy expenditures when compared to HID high bay lights.
Question: How do I go about adding LED high bays under the VEU Program?
Answer: The VEU program's LED high bay upgrading procedure begins with setting up a no-obligation meeting with property owners (commercial) to conduct a free site evaluation. The evaluation is followed by a thorough proposal and a visit from one of the installers/A-grade electricians who replace inefficient fluorescent high bay lights with energy-efficient LED high bay lights.
Question: Why did the electrician choose not to replace my broken/empty light fixtures?
Answer: The VEU programme does not cover broken lights.
Question: Am I permitted to keep my old/replaced lights?
Answer: No.
Question: Why?
Answer: Once our contractor has removed all of your building's old high bays, they will recycle them at a government-approved recycling site. The reimbursement programme requires that old/replaced items be decommissioned.
