Abstract

This research work emphasizes the urgent need to implement energy-efficient lighting technologies, particularly the retrofit of fluorescent lights with LED alternatives, in order to reduce energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. In addition to that maintaining operational safety and sustainability, improving energy efficiency is essential in Dubai's industries, which are major consumers of electricity and economic drivers. The project's goal is to retrofit energy-efficient LED lighting into a well-known packaging company's current fluorescent lighting systems. In doing so, the project hopes to improve illumination quality and minimize maintenance needs while lowering energy consumption, operating expenses, and environmental impact. The goals are to do a thorough Life Cycle Analysis, apply the DMAIC technique for continuous improvement, address sustainability pillars, calculate return on investment, and provide a detailed analysis of the company's current lighting system.This paper is a clear guide for the industries how could they implement that enhancement and it’s outcomes which are not only tackling the environmental aspects but I focused on illustrating and covering all sustainability pillars which are the economic ,environmental and social.
