A fuel-station forecourt that had to be bright, efficient, and weather-proof from day one.
Attock Petroleum Limited (APL) commissioned Crest LED to light its Lake City fuel station in Lahore, an outdoor canopy and street scheme covering 12,000 to 16,000 sq. ft. of forecourt and approach. The brief was high illumination for pumps and traffic, with low heat, low running cost, and fittings built for continuous outdoor duty. Installation completed on 27 March 2026.
A busy fuel site with zero tolerance for glare, downtime, or wasted watts.
A fuel station runs late every night. Canopy and approach lighting has to keep pumps, lanes, and pedestrians clearly visible while holding energy, heat, and maintenance in check. A conventional outdoor scheme could hit the brightness target, but at roughly double the draw, with hotter fittings and more frequent intervention on 8 to 10 metre mounts. Crest LED was engaged to deliver the full brief without those trade-offs.
We are satisfied with the performance, consumption reduction, and low maintenance of the lights. The canopy and street scheme delivers the visibility we need without the energy or upkeep burden of a conventional outdoor install.
A dual-product scheme matched to canopy soffit and street poles.
Crest LED surveyed the Wahdat Road forecourt before specifying a scheme that pairs two complementary 100W luminaires, each tuned to where it mounts and the surface it has to light.
Under the fuel canopy we installed 16 × CR-NRB-100W-CPL canopy lights for even soffit coverage across the pump islands. Along the approach and perimeter, 8 × CR-C12-100W-STL street lights on 8 to 10 metre poles throw light across the paved lanes. Together, 24 luminaires cover 12,000 to 16,000 sq. ft.
Every fixture is IP66-sealedagainst dust and rain, runs at 6500K cool white, delivers 140 to 150 lm/W at a 120° beam, and carries a rated life of at least 100,000 hours, pairing efficacy with the weather resistance an exposed fuel site demands.
Half the energy, half the carbon, across a 12,000 to 16,000 sq. ft. site.
The site's running profile was modelled against an equivalent conventional outdoor lighting scheme of the same coverage. On a like-for-like basis, the Crest LED design cuts both energy and carbon by half. The 4.8 kW conventional figure is an equivalent baseline derived from the performa's reported 50% saving, not a measured pre-installation load.
From a ≈ 4.8 kW equivalent baseline to 2.4 kW.
The 24 LED luminaires draw a combined 2,400 W, roughly half the load of an equivalent conventional outdoor scheme delivering the same brightness.
Half the carbon footprint, every operating hour.
Running 10 to 12 hours a night across the site, the LED scheme emits roughly half the CO2 of the conventional alternative modelled on the plan.
Crest LED vs conventional, every metric improved.
| //Parameter | //Conventional scheme | //Crest LED canopy & street |
|---|---|---|
| Lighting energy | ≈ 4.8 kW baseline | ↘2.4 kW · −50% |
| Operational cost | Baseline | ↘−50% |
| Carbon emissions | Baseline | ↘−50% |
| Night-time visibility | Baseline | ↗+90% |
| Heat generation | High | ↘Low |
| Weather sealing | Standard | ↗IP66 |
| Rated lifespan | Conventional | ↗≥100,000 hrs |
Outcomes the forecourt can see, and the budget can feel.
The Wahdat Road site went live in March 2026. Measured against the equivalent conventional baseline derived from the performa, the results land on every line of the original brief.
