  • 1. Long Life

    LED Lighting Features Long Operational Lifetime Expectations

    This is 11 years of continuous operation or 22 years of 50% operation. If you leave the LED fixture on for 8h per day it would take around 20 years before you’d have to replace the LED bulb.

  • 2. Energy Efficiency

    LED Lighting Features a Much Better Energy Efficiency

    If you use traditional lighting and have an electricity bill of e.g. US$ 100, then US$ 80 of that money has been used to heat the room, not to light it! Using LED illumination with 80% efficiency, the electricity costs would be around US$ 20 and you’d have saved around US$ 80

  • 3. Ecologically Friendly

    LED Lighting Is Much More Eco-Friendly

    LED lights contain no toxic materials and are 100% recyclable, and will help you to reduce your carbon footprint by up to a third. The long operational lifetime span mentioned above means also that one LED light bulb can save material and production of 25 incandescent light bulbs. A big step towards a greener future!

  • 4. Durable Quality

    LED Illumination Can Withstand Rough Conditions

    Because LED lights are resistant to shock, vibrations, and external impacts, they make great outdoor lighting systems for rough conditions and exposure to weather, wind, rain, or even external vandalism, traffic-related public exposure, and construction or manufacturing sites.

  • 5. Zero UV Emissions

    LED Lighting Features Close to No UV Emissions

    LED lighting is highly suitable not only for goods and materials that are sensitive to heat due to the benefit of little radiated heat emission but also for illumination of UV-sensitive objects or materials such as in museums, art galleries, archeological sites, etc.

  • 6. Design Flexibility

    LED Lighting Has Powerful Flexible Design Features

    LEDs can be combined in any shape to produce highly efficient illumination. Individual LEDs can be dimmed, resulting in dynamic control of light, color, and distribution. Well-designed LED illumination systems can achieve fantastic lighting effects, not only for the eye but also for the mood and the mind.

  • 7. Operational in Extremely Cold or Hot Temperatures

    LED are ideal for operation under cold and low outdoor temperature settings. For fluorescent lamps, low temperatures may affect the operation and present a challenge, but LED illumination operates well also in cold settings, such as outdoor winter settings, freezer rooms, etc.

  • 8. Light Disbursement

    LED Lights Achieve Higher Application Efficiency

    LED is designed to focus its light and can be directed to a specific location without the use of an external reflector, achieving a higher application efficiency than conventional lighting. Well-designed LED illumination systems can deliver light more efficiently to the desired location.

  • 9. Instant Lighting & Frequent Switching

    LEDs Can Be Turned On/Off Many Times

    LED lights can be switched off and on frequently and without affecting the LED’s lifetime or light emission. In contrast, traditional lighting may take several seconds to reach full brightness, and frequent on/off switching does drastically reduce operational life expectancy.

  • 10. Low-Voltage

    LED Lighting Can Run on Low-Voltage Power Supply

    A low-voltage power supply is sufficient for LED illumination. This makes it easy to use LED lighting also in outdoor settings by connecting an external solar-energy source, and is a big advantage when it comes to using LED technology in remote or rural areas.


    LED is an energy-efficient lighting technology that has the potential to change the future of lighting.Residential LEDs, namely ENERGY STAR-rated products, use at least 75% less energy, and last 25 times longer than standard incandescent lighting. 


    The widespread use of LEDs over the next 10 years could save about 348 kWh of electricity. This is the equivalent yearly electrical output of 44 large electric power plants (1000 megawatts each), and a savings of more than $30 billion at today's electrical prices.

Solar Thermal Hot Water

The basic principle of solar thermal heating is to utilize the sun’s energy and convert it into heat which is then transferred into your home or business heating system in the form of hot water and space heating.



The main source of heat generation is roof-mounted solar panels which are used in conjunction with a boiler, collector, or immersion heater. The solar collector will use the sun's rays to heat a transfer fluid which is usually a mixture of water and glycol (antifreeze) which prevents the water from freezing.

    The heated water from the collectors is pumped to a heat exchanger which would be inside the water tank in your home. The heat from the exchanger will then heat the water inside the tank. After the liquid releases its heat, the water will flow back to the collectors for reheating. A controller will ensure that the fluid will circulate to the collector when there is sufficient heat available.
