The lighting of public spaces is one of the most important tasks of cities and municipalities, but is increasingly presenting them with major difficulties. This is because rising global CO₂ emissions and greenhouse gases are among the main drivers of climate change - and public lighting accounts for a not insignificant proportion of this. Millions of lights and lighting systems are in operation around the clock worldwide - often with outdated technology and high energy consumption. This means that public lighting also contributes significantly to municipal CO₂ emissions. So it's time to act!

We have made it our mission to develop future-proof and needs-based lighting solutions that are energy and cost-efficient and thus make a decisive contribution to reducing the carbon footprint and achieving municipal climate targets.

Environmentally friendly lighting - what you can do!

Minimizing light pollution - for the sake of the environment

Light emissions are one of the biggest disadvantages of artificial lighting. Our lighting solutions minimize light pollution by using suitable light colors, optimum luminaire heights and apertures. We also design the lighting to be aesthetically pleasing - tailored to your needs.

Climate-friendly lighting with CO₂ certificate

With our sustainable street lights, you can make another important contribution to climate protection. Purchase our lights directly with a CO₂ certificate from myclimate and take responsibility for all CO₂ emissions. In this way, you reduce your ecological footprint and actively contribute to environmental protection.

It doesn't always have to be new! Converting luminaires instead of replacing them

Around 66% of CO₂ emissions are generated during the production of luminaire housings. Our upcycling concept and our circular lighting solutions simply reuse existing components and upgrade them with state-of-the-art LED technology and new interfaces. In this way, we make the best possible use of the service life of old lamps and convert them into networked (circular) luminaires.

Intelligent lighting always pays off!

What savings potential does my public lighting offer? With the CO₂ calculator, you can quickly and easily determine how much you can save in CO₂ and costs by switching to sustainable outdoor lighting.

Calculate savings potential now

Sustainability is not just a question of hardware. A lighting management system is just as important for efficient operation as a well thought-out (recycling) concept at the end of the theoretical service life in order to reuse as many components as possible.
