CBC: energy-efficient lighting system for historic Napoleonic fort. Electricity bills at a historic Napoleonic fort in Chatham, Kent, have been significantly cut, thanks to the installation of an energy-efficient lighting system from CBC.

Savings of more than 2,000 £ per quarter have been achieved at Fort Amherst following the replacement of halogen-style lamps with Ganz WL100 and WL300 LED illuminators.

The Fort Amherst site, comprising an extensive network of tunnels, gun placements, and hidden defenses, is in uniquely complete condition and is the world’s largest surviving fortress from the Napoleonic era.

It was originally built to protect the strategically vital dockyard at Chatham, and 150 years later continued in service as a secret command center during the Battle of Britain.
