The NHS's birthplace is one of a number of hospitals to cut costs and carbon emissions via a change to LED lighting.
Trafford General Hospital, North Manchester General Hospital and Wythenshawe Hospital are all in line for the work.
The Department for Energy Security and Net Zero and the Department for Health and Social Care are backing the change to LED lighting to the tune of £1.2 million as a part of a NHS-wide scheme.
The hospitals, all of which are a part of Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, are anticipated to cut costs by more than £200,000 a year and carbon emissions by more than 200 tonnes a year.
The decrease in CO2 emissions is equivalent to the CO2 emissions created by charging around 26 million smart phones.
Mark Foden, associate director of sustainability at Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust, said: "The future of our organisation is a green one. This is another step in a series of changes we are making to become net-zero and to save on costs and carbon emissions."
