Romanian oil & gas company OMV Petrom have replaced conventional lighting systems in 345 filling stations with a new LED based system
”The increase of energy efficiency is an important objective for us, at company level, as well as for Romania and the European Union, which targets a 30% reduction of annual primary energy consumption by 2030,” said Neil Anthony Morgan, member of OMV Petrom Executive Board responsible for Refining and Marketing.
The intention is to increase efficiency in filling stations by reducing electricity consumption. Traditional lighting system was replaced with LED lighting systems in the shops, roof, car wash and station perimeters.
According to company estimates, the adoption of LED technology in 345 Petrom filling stations will generate a 50% reduction in the energy consumption used for lighting, respectively an 11% decrease of the total electricity bill of each station.
The company is considering extending the project for the entire Petrom filling stations network. The company runs a total of over 500 petrol stations in Romania under the brands Petrom and OMV.
