Energy Efficiency and Human Centric Lighting
The advent of LED lighting has changed everything in the lighting industry . It has been a monumental breakthrough . Artificial Light is generated in a completely different way than ever before : In brief , as a low level of electricity is applied to certain materials , the electrons emit an Photon ( light particle) as they are zipping around , therefor there is very little energy used or degradation happening . This means using less energy and great longevity .
In working with LEDs the color of the light and quality of the light were issues that needed to be addressed . As the industry addressed these issues, we found that we could enhance the light in different wave frequencies , this is not possible to the same extent with other forms of light . We have discovered that Correlated Color Temperature as described by the wavelength in nanometers, can influence health and well being , enhance Plant growth , Increase tissue health , Kill germs and bacteria and other. we can help alleviate headaches and enhance sleep patterns but using tunable white light . Along with enhanced controls , a lighting designer can design a system to fit your lifestyle and needs like never before . this is what we call Human Centric Lighting
LEDs use a fraction of the electricity used by other lighting technologies .
Along with Daylight Harvesting ( the use of natural sunlight for free) , Occupancy Sensing , Dimming controls and Load shedding ( shutting down electrical loads not needed), It is not uncommon to see savings from 50% t0 80 or 90% of the lighting load which can be between 60 to 80 % the electrical use .
