Sol Inc., a provider of solar and grid powered LED outdoor lighting solutions, recently has provided Lund Food Holdings, Inc. with 12 high-intensity grid tied 20/20ª LED light systems combined with a solar powered 20/20ª system at the new Lunds supermarket located at 12th St. and Hennepin Ave. in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

"We were looking at every opportunity to incorporate sustainable technology as part of an effort to reduce the store's environmental impact while reducing energy use, and using Sol Inc.'s 20/20ª LED lighting helped us accomplish both," said Mike Edgett, senior project manager for Lund Food Holdings, Inc.

 "Using Sol Inc. lighting was just a part of our commitment to identify and implement many green building solutions on this project. Sol Inc.'s unique ability to combine solar with high-efficiency grid powered LED lighting was a big plus for us. We are in the process of applying for LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Silver certification, and the installation of the energy-efficient LED lights will help us attain the credits required for this certification."

Edgett added that Sol Inc.'s LED lighting solutions will be considered for additional store locations.
