Digitally integrated lighting will facilitate energy efficiency

We must look at adopting various digital tools and technologies to reduce energy consumption, along with the anticipated failures in lighting systems, says Rahul Bankar, Director, Fevino Industries LLP.

Is there a Demand for smart and efficient lighting in the commercial and residential segments?

Smart cities consume less lighting as compared to regular lights. This is actually power saving which will be used for commercial and residential use. If India reaches its goal of 100 cities, it will be a big power saving as well as beneficial for industrial growth.

Renewable trends are impacting the demand for energy-efficient lighting

This basically directly impacts the sources we have for energy/power production. The demand for energy has been incessantly increasing day by day. By using energy-efficient lighting, we can save lots of energy, which will be useful for our future industrial growth. With the power generated from renewable energy, our future energy will be useful at a lower cost.

Enabling industry to convene demand for energy-efficient lighting in smart cities with IT, IoT and automation

IT & IIoT integrated with regular lights will save ample of energy and power. We can manage its on/off schedule from one point, which can be useful for energy saving. We can detect faults and other problems in lights by managing them, which allows us to solve them in less time and money. Ultimately, we use these techniques to reduce energy consumption and failure rates.

Lighting sector’s contribution in minimising the environmental impacts and CO2 emissions

This is from the evolution of LED technology. By using highly efficient LEDs and drippers, the power consumption is reduced and lumens are greatly increased, which directly impacts the required wattage. By using low watt lights, we emit less CO2 as compared to previous lighting products. By using high-lumen lights, we require fewer quantities than previously used.
