Lighting Control for Sports Grounds
Cloud-Based Control for Total Convenience
Managing the lighting control for sports grounds can be a challenge, especially for clubs, councils, and various users responsible for maintaining both the convenience and accountability of lighting systems.
With zencontrol cloud-based lighting control for sports grounds, these challenges are a thing of the past. Our innovative, cost-effective solution allows lighting to be managed remotely and locally, providing a seamless blend of ease, flexibility, and accountability.
“Sustainable Emergency Lighting” – A great title, but is there such a thing? Can emergency lighting really be sustainable?
In this blog we argue that although emergency lighting is typically considered a “Life Safety System” and therefore excluded from green legislation, it can still be sustainable with the appropriate strategy.
We explain how a well-planned and managed system can be both energy efficient and environmentally conscious, and even save you money!
During lockdown we observed the pleasant side effect of fewer vehicles on the roads, fewer fossil fuels being burned, and therefore lower levels of carbon emissions generally.
People out walking commented on the breathing of “cleaner, fresher air” and their surroundings seeming brighter with less carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Many commented on our natural world’s ability to heal – when it gets the chance!
Certainly, most are well aware of the damaging effect on our world of burning fossil fuels. Possibly less generally known is the effect of high carbon dioxide concentrations on brain functioning.
We love debunking common lighting control myths – one myth at a time!
Myth
Fixed schedules are the best way to control building services such as lighting, heating and ventilation.
Busted
The hybrid style of working that has become common since the pandemic means offices can be at full capacity some days of the week, and virtually empty at others. Optimum control is when facility managers can monitor building performance (ideally from any location) and easily adjust according to occupancy.
