Cree, Inc., Durham, N.C., will provide energy-efficient LED lighting to Walmart for new stores and renovations. Walmart plans to install Cree LRP-38 LED light bulbs in 650 stores during the first year, replacing ceramic metal-halide in its produce and electronics departments. Cree’s LR6 recessed LED downlights are also being used in new construction applications. Designed to last 50,000 hours, the LRP-38 consumes 82 percent less energy than the 70W ceramic metal-halide bulbs it will replace in Walmart stores and can last more than five years in a 24/7 operating environment. The design of the LRP-38 also reduces glare for customers, focusing attention on the merchandise and not the lighting.
