        retrofit project is well underway!  This massive project
        involves replacing over 6500 older, inefficient light
        fixtures with new efficient LED lamps.  The results of
        this project are estimated to save over 620,000 kWh
        and $90,000 annually on their energy bills.  Projects
        like this are eligible for generous MVU rebates that
        reduce the overall cost of the project and bring
        the simple payback down to a reasonable level.
