CO2 reduction as a business model. STEINEL solutions for the climate.

Climate protection and climate change are at the centre of efforts to reduce CO2 emissions. Solutions must be found worldwide that combine progress and sustainability.

The principle of reducing consumption is deeply rooted in STEINEL's DNA. With the invention of the first sensor light, it became clear: light should only be switched on when it is needed. This idea has given rise to hundreds of products and solutions that save energy and thus reduce CO2 emissions by using sensors and intelligent control. For example, just one of our RS PRO 5100 SC linear luminaires can achieve the CO2 compensation of 12 trees per year.

Today, we can achieve CO2 savings of up to 95 per cent.

The annual CO2 saving is equivalent to the compensation of 1,264 trees. Year after year.

Continuous lighting is a thing of the past – lights only come on when they are needed.

CO2 reduction that quickly pays off. By converting to 350 RS PRO 5100 SC linear high bay luminaires, the Eurogress car park saves over €30,000 in energy costs every year. Another positive effect of the conversion is the improved quality of light with dimmed ambient light. This means more safety and comfort for users in the vehicle and pedestrian areas.

Climate-friendly parking made easy.

Car parks and underground car parks are usually open around the clock. Good illumination of all surfaces is important for the personal sense of security of the users and for the safe manoeuvring of vehicles. However, leaving the light on permanently wastes valuable energy. The Heuried underground car park has solved this problem by installing a sensor-controlled lighting solution combined with intelligent networking and light switching from STEINEL. By investing in this modern, energy-efficient lighting solution, users enjoy more comfort and security, making their time in the underground car park more pleasant.

Climate protection starts on the stairs.

Stairwell lighting that is more convenient for tenants and saves a lot of energy. In the Steinacker residential complex in Zurich, the stairwell lighting was still operated by push-button switches, which meant that the lights were often left on even though they were not needed. In addition, the old luminaires heated up the stairwell due to the long burning hours. Now, just 80% of the maximum light output of the newly installed R-series luminaires is sufficient to illuminate the floors as soon as people are present. In addition, the background lighting creates a great atmosphere and provides more security when dusk falls.

A hive of activity.
day in, day out.

Busy operations, day in, day out – that's everyday life at Munich's Franz Josef Strauß Airport. Visibility and safety are crucial, particularly in the vicinity of the cargo area, where there are many obstacles and potential hazards. Continuous lighting is not expedient in terms of energy costs and environmental pollution, which is why Flughafen München GmbH opted for the intelligent, sensor-switched solution from STEINEL. According to its own calculations, STEINEL solutions save the airport 230 tonnes of CO2 a year, the equivalent of the CO2 absorbed by around 18,400 trees.
