Barbizon Lighting improves the energy-efficiency of a UK BCTV studio by adding new energy-efficient studio lighting, a lighting grid, and a studio curtain to create a second studio set, by sliding over the standard fixed studio that the station has used for the last couple of years. The company added a new green-screen curtain to create a third virtual-set environment and lighting that allows the BCTV to greatly improve the station's green-screen productions. The green screen and a new teleprompter allows production of quick video public-service announcements or complete virtual-set shows. PSNH (Public Service of New Hampshire) is paying for a good portion of the lighting costs as the station is using energy-efficient lighting. Paying $20,406, PSHN will contribute more than half of the project cost. Between the studio and the town meeting room where lighting was installed in 2010, PSNH has contributed $34,778 to the station's energy-efficient lighting purchases not including the annual energy savings. Barbizon Lighting coordinated the rebates from PSNH and representative, Jonathan Lipsy worked with PSNH and BCTV throughout the process. Barbizon Lighting
