For World Environment Day, we’re proud to highlight projects that help create more efficient and sustainable facilities for the future. 🌎💡

Industrial Electric Supply supported the lighting upgrade at Memorial Stadium at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign by supplying Benchmark LED fixtures for the East Hall renovation.

By replacing 79 outdated metal halide fixtures with energy-efficient LED technology, the project helped reduce energy usage, lower maintenance demands, and improve long-term lighting performance throughout the facility.

At IES, we understand that smarter infrastructure choices can make a lasting impact, not only for performance and reliability, but for the environment as well.

Where does switchgear go before a project is ready for it? âš¡

Not every jobsite is ready to receive gear the moment it ships.

Construction timelines shift. Site conditions change. Other trades may still be working. But with long lead times on switchgear, waiting too long to order often isn’t an option.

That’s why storage matters more than most people realize.

At Industrial Electric Supply, we can coordinate and store switchgear until your project is ready for delivery, helping teams secure critical equipment without forcing it onto an unprepared site.

It’s one more way we help projects stay flexible, organized, and moving forward even when timelines evolve.

Most people think of electrical safety as hard hats, PPE, and lockout/tagout procedures âš¡

And while those are all critical, there’s a whole layer of safety that doesn’t get talked about enough: what’s happening inside the electrical system itself.

That’s where switchgear comes in.

It helps detect faults, isolate issues, and protect equipment and people by keeping electrical problems from spreading through a system.

When it’s designed and applied correctly, it becomes a key part of a building’s overall safety strategy.

At Industrial Electric Supply, we help teams think through switchgear early so safety and reliability are built in from the start.

Industrial Electric Supply helped power a brighter game-day experience at Northern Illinois University’s Jeffrey and Kimberly Yordon Center, supporting a lighting upgrade inside the football locker room.

IES supplied upgraded lighting fixtures designed to improve visibility, comfort, and overall functionality in a high-traffic athletic space. From coordinating delivery to supporting installation logistics, our team helped ensure the right materials were in place to keep the project moving smoothly.

The result is a refreshed locker room environment that feels brighter, more welcoming, and better equipped to support athlete focus, preparation, and team pride.

This project reflects how lighting can transform a space beyond illumination, impacting how it’s experienced and used every day.
