WIRELESS INTELLIGENCE FOR GREEN BUILDINGS
T
ougher environmental standards and soaring energy costs demand optimised concepts for the energy use in buildings. This necessitates building automation technologies which can be speedily and seamlessly implemented, whilst reducing operational and maintenance costs.
Energy harvesting wireless technology from EnOcean is a particularly effective approach. In addition to saving energy, it can also greatly simplify the cabling of a building,
Further plans now include fitting Dialight LED High Bays throughout ExCeL’s 46 conference halls. For Chris Barnes, the main issue is light quality while the reduced energy, maintenance needs and carbon emissions are all added bonuses to the lighting efficiency. As he says, “Our workshop’s immediate reaction to the LED was ‘Wow!’ I’d describe it in two words and say the High Bay is ‘selling itself’.”
ABOUT DIALIGHT Dialight (LSE: DIA.L) defines the current state of LED lighting technology with continuous innovations in light output, efficacy and reliability for their complete line of high-specification lighting fixtures specifically designed for industrial, commercial, hazardous location, transportation & infrastructure applications. These results are directly related to the company’s ongoing commitment to advancing solid-state lighting products that vastly reduce maintenance, improve safety, ease disposal, and are more environmentally
friendly – thereby helping to reduce CO2 emissions, the dominant GHG contributor to global warming. The company is headquartered in the UK with operations in the USA, UK, Australian, Denmark, Germany and Mexico. More information about the company, its LED products and solid-state lighting technologies can be found at

minimise maintenance requirements and allow faster response to building configuration changes. The innovative technology draws its power from surroundings: motion, light or differences in temperature, for example. It works without batteries, making it absolutely free of maintenance. It is easily integrated into common building automation systems – regardless of whether they communicate by LON, KNX, BACnet, TCP/IP or Ethernet. There are currently over 600 interoperable products based on EnOcean technology. This means that solutions from different manufacturers can work together in the same building automation system. The EnOcean Alliance, together with partners Distech Controls and EnOcean
GmbH will show a wide variety of innovative wireless products for green buildings on stand S2433 at Ecobuild.
