Spare fluorescent tubes are getting harder to buy since the 2023–24 phase-out, which is why many sites in Ellesmere Port Town now upgrade a floor or a unit at a time rather than waiting for failures.
Most Ellesmere Port Town businesses we survey still have a mix of T8 battens, 600×600 fluorescent panels and the odd halogen downlight. Replacing them with complete LED luminaires usually cuts lighting energy by a third to a half.

Privately rented commercial property in England generally needs an EPC of E or better, or a registered exemption, and lighting is one of the cheaper ways to improve a rating.
