17 October WHICH LIGHTING SYSTEMS TO INSTALL TO SAVE ENERGY?

In France, according toADEME, artificial lighting is an important position of consumption. Excluding public lighting, it represents more than 10% of total national electricity consumption. Optimize lighting to make them more performing has become necessary to achieve savings, participate in the transition and face the challenges of the energy crisis.

FOCUS ON INTERIOR LIGHTING

A efficient lighting renovation  in buildings is recommended and this can involve actions such as:

>> Replace light fixtures by energy-efficient light bulbs type LED (luminous efficiency Lm/W)
>> Install motion detectors
>> Promote the daylight and natural solar gain
>> Switch to one centralized management

The democratization of LED lighting has many advantages:

• A reduction in electricity consumption: the consumption of LED lamps is low, on average 8 to 10 times lower than a conventional incandescent bulb, and 3 to 5 times less than a compact fluorescent bulb.

• Longer life : 25 to 50 times longer than a conventional incandescent bulb, i.e. approximately 20 years of service life (for average daily use of 3 hours).
  >> This long service life greatly reduces maintenance operations and their costs.

• Little heat loss

• A weaker glare compared to other types of bulbs.

CisLed is a French family business specializing in the design and manufacture of lighting systems with LEDs as well as driver boards. This company benefits from a know-how of more than 30 years. It accompanies professionals in the proper understanding of their needs, the design of tailor-made lighting solutions adapted to their projects.

CisLED recently joined the Takagreen community in order to integrate an eco-responsible approach into the purchasing process for professionals.

Other experts in LED lighting systems are also referenced on our platform. These are companies Itras lighting, Clareo lighting, Dimatelec, Eqwergy.

FOCUS ON URBAN LIGHTING

Mastering urban lighting is a important issue for communities both from an economic and environmental point of view. According to Ademe, the energy consumed by public lighting represents 16% of community consumption all energies combined. Excess lighting represents a light pollution but also a significant energy waste. We now speak of pollution because of its impact harmful to biodiversity that it disturbs.

Fortunately, innovative solutions are developing and represent real alternatives to artificial light for develop your territory :

• Solar public lighting with stand-alone or hybrid solar streetlights : specialized companies Lumi'In, Lighting, Tohar,, Flexsol

• Lighting by Bioluminescence: light from biochemical reactions that occur in nature. glow uses marine bacteria, Woodlight uses plants

• Photoluminescence lighting: Reflection of the sun and/or natural light with Eldom

• Energy management solutions to optimize all installations: NRGYbox
