A $2.3 million contract with Pasadena City College allowed Seesmart to retrofit the entire campus with LED lighting. Each fluorescent tube light in these buildings, including the gymnasium, parking structures, mechanical rooms, offices, stairwells and classrooms was replaced with a Seesmart LED tube light. Pasadena City College is a forward-thinking institution, nationally renowned for its initiatives in sustainability. The college has received the Institutional Excellence in Climate Leadership Award from the American College & University Presidents’ Climate Commitment.
