The newly installed LED field lighting system will provide Paul Brown Stadium with high quality, consistent lighting levels. Implemented upgrades replace the stadium’s outdated metal halide fixtures, which were over 20 years old. As part of a 20-year comprehensive parts and labor warranty, the newly installed LED fixtures will also eliminate future challenges and costs associated with routine lamp and ballast replacements for the stadium. The project is expected to amass more than $60,000 in annual electric cost savings.

“We have been working with Ameresco since the start of 2014 and are continuously looking to find ways to incorporate more sustainable solutions into the County’s infrastructure,'' said Joe Feldkamp, Director, Stadia and Parking, Hamilton County. “With the addition of these new measures, we can rest assured that we’re implementing upgrades that enable higher quality lighting, while also creating additional energy savings for the stadium and taxpayers of Hamilton County.”

The completion of the energy efficient upgrades at Paul Brown Stadium marks the culmination of the seventh phase of work completed under the partnership between Ameresco and Hamilton County. In past phases of work, the County has implemented various energy efficiency and smart technology upgrades to nearly all County facilities, including Paul Brown Stadium and Great American Ballpark, the home of the Cincinnati Reds MLB Team. The partnership with Ameresco has allowed the County to focus on continuing to reduce their carbon impact while implementing needed facility improvements, making it more attractive for other major sporting events such as the 2026 World Cup soccer matches, currently under consideration.

We are excited to mark the completion of this enhanced lighting project at Paul Brown Stadium and we are proud of the long-term partnership we have maintained with Hamilton County,” said Lou Maltezos, executive vice president, Ameresco. “By replacing outdated field lighting fixtures with energy efficient LEDs, Paul Brown Stadium is making significant improvements in terms of sustainability and field visibility for the athletes and fans. The County’s continued focus on reducing their carbon impact via energy efficient upgrades solidifies their position as a leading smart and energy-responsible County.”

Construction of the project was completed in July 2021.
