As the Halifax Mooseheads clinched a thrilling 1-0 victory over the Sherbrooke Phoenix, securing their spot in the QMJHL final, the team's success is not the only cause for celebration. The Mooseheads' recent triumphs have been enhanced by an innovative LED lighting project supplied by Graybar Canada at the Scotiabank Centre, their home arena in Halifax. This state-of-the-art lighting system, the Cooper Ephesus Arena PRO 600 series, was installed in 2016. It has not only transformed the game-day experience for fans but also yielded significant cost savings and improved energy efficiency for the organization.

The Scotiabank Centre, located on Argyle Street in Halifax, has been a hub of entertainment for the past 50 years. Serving as the home arena for the Mooseheads and the Halifax Thunderbirds, the facility also hosts numerous music concerts and events throughout the year. However, with the introduction of the new LED lighting system, the Scotiabank Centre has entered a new era of technological advancements.

The implementation of the Cooper Ephesus sports lighting system supplied by Graybar Canada has given the Mooseheads an unprecedented level of flexibility and creativity in creating memorable moments for fans. Whether it's the anticipation building up to a crucial goal or the excitement that follows a game-winning score, the dynamic lighting system enhances the atmosphere within the arena.

By consistently investing in improving their facilities, the Scotiabank Centre and, consequently, the Halifax Mooseheads are experiencing the advantages of energy efficiency, cost savings, enhanced control, and increased fan engagement.

Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings

The previous lighting system in the Scotiabank Centre was outdated, consisting of metal halide fixtures that were both cumbersome and expensive to maintain. However, with the integration of the new LED lighting system, the building and teams have reaped significant benefits. Graybar Canada has helped the organization save 20% in maintenance costs by reducing the need for frequent servicing of the fixtures. Moreover, the new system has resulted in a remarkable 60% annual decrease in overall energy consumption, promoting sustainability and reducing environmental impact.

Enhanced Control and Fan Engagement

One of the key advantages of the LED lighting system is the increased control it offers to the operations team. With the ability to create 11 preset scenes, such as goal scoring or penalty shots, the lighting system can direct the attention of fans where it's needed most. This level of control allows the Mooseheads to curate a memorable fan experience, ensuring that every moment is highlighted and celebrated appropriately.

Now with improved reliability and instant blackout recovery, the team can focus on delivering a professional and seamless experience to fans and be confident in doing so. The Cooper Ephesus system's dependability enhances the overall atmosphere within the Scotiabank Centre, elevating the game-day experience for all attendees.

With significant energy savings and increased control over lighting effects, the Mooseheads have set a new standard for excellence in the QMJHL. As the team prepares to face the Quebec Remparts in the final, one thing is certain— the future is shining bright for the Halifax Mooseheads.
