Efficient LED lighting is an active area for green-technology. Using efficient LED lighting and lighting controls can contribute greatly to energy savings in Data Centres. LED lighting is especially suitable for Data Centre lighting due to its low heat output. After computer loads, HVAC is the largest electrical load on a data centre. Low-temperature LED lighting has the potential to significantly reduce HVAC loads.
LED’s also offer improved lighting quality. LED’s mimic the spectrum of daylight more closely than fluorescent lighting.
LED’s save money through increased lighting efficiency. LED’s offer Four times the life time of commonly used commercial fluorescent lights.
Led lighting installed inside server racks will improve the lighting considerably.
Having a low-voltage DC line to lights using Ethernet cables improves the energy efficiency.
LED lighting systems can be used to upgrade the following:
- Fluorescent lighting
- Commercial interior lighting
- Contemporary lighting
