Lighting systems which work with DC voltage are more efficient and future-proof than conventional lighting with 230 V AC.

In industrial environments, where particularly high demands are placed on fixtures and systems in terms of reliability, efficiency and economy, DC power supplies have long proven their value. DC Lighting goes one step further: the combination of LED luminaires with sensors and an intelligent management system offers users more comfort and efficiency, and building operators and investors significantly lower costs for installation and operation.

DC Lighting is an ideal solution in combination with photovoltaic (PV) panels and storage batteries but also for renewable energy such as solar panels in green buildings. These already work with DC voltage; rectifiers and the associated electrical losses are eliminated.

LED luminaires have a much higher efficiency than conventional light bulbs and require far less energy for the same amount of light. This is already a significant advantage, but it is only in combination with powerful sensors and intelligent management that LED luminaires can fully exploit their advantages.

This is supported by DC grids with a centralized AC/DC conversion, which generates DC voltage from AC voltage and is proven to be more energy-efficient than individual conversions in each single fixture. A reduction in power consumption of the light by more than 70 percent compared to old-fashioned system is more than realistic.

Advantages of DC Lighting

Apart from the advantages typical for PoE Lighting, DC Lighting offers following benefits:

More reliable than AC power

Using direct current increases the stability of the installation and reduces the likelihood of failures.

Efficient

For direct current, fewer converters (AC/DC) and thus fewer components are needed. This is more efficient and saves a lot of maintenance.

Optimal use

Optimal use of solar power, wind power, batteries, they also use DC. (inverters not needed)

PoE Lighting is the most efficient, flexible, and sustainable lighting solution for buildings of all sizes. It simplifies installation, reduces maintenance, and lowers energy consumption and CO2 emissions, making it a superior alternative to conventional systems.

By delivering power through data cabling, PoE lighting integrates seamlessly with IP-based networks. This system combines sensors, LED luminaires, and intelligent controls to offer unmatched energy efficiency and user comfort. The result? Reduced installation and operational costs, making it a highly attractive option for investors and building operators alike.

A key enabler for smart buildings, PoE lighting supports IoT by offering a platform for advanced sensor technology and real-time data collection. LED luminaires paired with intelligent sensors and control systems can reduce lighting power consumption by over 70%.
