As businesses work towards the goal of Net Zero carbon emissions, all areas of energy consumption should be reviewed, and goals set to reduce waste and improve efficiency.
The unique challenges of lighting industrial spaces such as maintaining higher illumination levels, through long operating hours and providing consistent illumination for spaces with lights at different heights, ensuring the most efficient system is key.
The use of smart lighting controls in an industrial environment simplifies the process of saving energy by optimising the use of lighting throughout operation while also improving the lifespan of the lighting system and future-proofing your building to allow you to adapt to changes in the way your organisation works.
Smart lighting controls are revolutionising the way industrial environments manage their energy consumption. By leveraging advanced technologies, these systems can significantly reduce energy use while maintaining optimal lighting conditions for safety and productivity.
Smart lighting controls such as Organic Response® can be integrated into an existing lighting system to provide benefits in how lighting is configured to operate throughout the day.

Occupancy sensors are a key component of smart lighting systems. These sensors detect the presence of people in a specific area and adjust the lighting accordingly. When an area is unoccupied, the lights are automatically dimmed or turned off, reducing unnecessary energy consumption. This is particularly useful in large industrial spaces where certain areas may not be in constant use.
Daylight harvesting is a technique that uses natural light to supplement artificial lighting. Smart lighting systems equipped with daylight sensors detect ambient light levels using a photocell and can adjust the brightness of artificial lights based on the amount of natural light available.
By dimming or turning off lights when there is sufficient daylight, energy consumption is significantly reduced. This not only saves energy but also allows for better use of natural light to create a more pleasant working environment.
Smart lighting control systems can be programmed to follow specific schedules so that lights are only on during operational hours. Timers can be set to turn lights on and off at predetermined times, preventing lights from being left on overnight or during weekends when the facility is not in use. This helps to eliminate wasted energy and reduce overall consumption.
In some cases, lighting controls can be integrated into existing lighting systems. This has the benefit of re-using equipment to reduce the total environmental impact of the project by eliminating waste. Organic Response can be integrated into existing lighting systems to provide smart control and provide data on energy consumption over time that will help you to reduce long term costs and future proof your building.
