The new ruling means that all new buildings will have to feature LED lighting.

Fitting Philips ‘Dubai Lamp’, will be made the basic requirement for getting a Building Completion Certificate in Dubai.

Philips struck up a good deal!.. All new buildings in Dubai will soon be compelled by law to install specific LED lamps, the municipality has ruled, after striking a deal with Philips Lighting to supply millions of light sources to the emirate.

Authorities in Dubai signed a five-year contract with Philips to create the ‘Dubai Lamp’, which, it it is claimed, will be the first commercially available 200 lumen per Watt LED lamp.

The new fixtures will replace 80 percent of traditional lights currently in the emirate’s residential buildings, and, as of this year, all new buildings constructed in the city will have have to feature the Philips LED.

Fitting LED in new buildings will be made the basic requirement for getting a Building Completion Certificate, by the end of this year.

The initiative will initially focus on new buildings and big complexes such as schools, hospitals, mosques and shopping centres. A study will also be undertaken to develop a strategy of implementation for older buildings, in an attempt to ensure that the scheme ensures a wider legacy and that energy savings and a positive environmental impact continue to grow overtime.

Philips has been commissioned by the Dubai authorities to manufacture and supply two million of the ‘Dubai Lamps’, which will not contain mercury or generate heat. The Dubai Municipality plans to install 10 million Dubai Lamps before the end of 2021.

‘It will be made the basic requirement for getting a building completion certificate. This will be beneficial for both sides. The owner of the building will be able to save a lot of money on energy charges and we will able to protect the environment,’ Hussain Nasser Lootah, director general of Dubai Municipality, told The National.

‘In the beginning, we will concentrate on new buildings and we will complete a study of old buildings to see what can be done.’

Lootah said the latest agreement which is in line with government directives, supported the Dubai Integrated Energy Strategy, which targets a 30 percent reduction in energy consumption by 2030, and the Dubai Carbon Abatement Strategy, which is aimed at reducing carbon emissions by 16 per cent by 2021.

The lamps will be available in four models, both in cool daylight and warm white colours. That includes 1W candle lamps to replace the 25W incandescent lamp, 2W bulbs to replace 40W incandescent lamps, 3W bulbs to replace 60W incandescent lamps, and the 3W MR16 Spot to replace 50W halogen spots.

Customer challenge

Carrefour, the largest retailer in Europe, was opening a new hypermarket in North West Spain. With no points of entry for daylight in the building, the company needed a way to create a natural shopping environment. Could Philips help Carrefour to attain the right levels of light and reach its sustainability goals?

The right lighting

With over 9,500 stores over 32 countries, Carrefour knows a thing or two about shopping. The company, founded in 1959, has built itself up to become the largest retailer in Europe and the second biggest in the world. When it opened a new hypermarket in Santiago de Compostela, illumination posed a significant challenge as the premises had no entry points for daylight. In line with the group’s sustainability efforts, a bright yet energy-efficient lighting solution was needed.

LED was the answer. For general illumination, Maxos LED was used to bring natural-looking light to the aisles. The crisp, white brilliance creates a refreshing atmosphere for customers without any uncomfortable glare. Ecostyle LED was used for accent lighting, bringing out the quality in merchandise with excellent color rendering. These two fixtures represent energy savings of 55% and 50% respectively – no small chunk of change for a large store.

In the coolers and freezers, Master LED SA tubes were installed to give produce an enticing white glow, and delivering a 60% energy saving. Their virtually heat-free operation means that cooling units can be kept at the required temperature without using extra power, leading to further cost reductions. Control of all the lighting systems is achieved through with Philips Dynalite in combination with the DyNet network. This control system enables the use of pre-programmed light settings, for set-and-forget convenience.

The new 100% LED lighting system saves over 60% of the energy used for lighting compared with Carrefour’s standard lighting systems. This is expected to reduce C02 emissions by an impressive 96 tons per year.

Novel Energy Lighting supplies Philips trade and pro range LED products. Call us today: 0208-540-8287, to discuss your project needs, or visit our website to explore some of the products on offer.

Lights are used everywhere, in homes, offices, shops, hotels, and hospitals. And since these lights are constantly needed, you will have to ensure that they are well-maintained. However, the maintenance of these lights may be a tiresome task. Especially if you own a restaurant or a hotel, you will need to make sure that your lights are powerful and durable enough to provide consistent and pleasing lighting for your customers. Dead bulbs are one of the most frequent problems hotels encounter, leading to customer complaints and bad reviews.  Failed lighting can also stop operations completely in commercial spaces like offices and warehouses.

Fluorescent tubes, incandescent, and halogen bulbs are the main problem in most buildings, ramping up electricity consumption, and failing after a few hundred hours. These traditional lamps cannot put up with the lighting demands which are made from them daily. Therefore, why not use lights which give you good quality of lighting and last long at the same time?

With Philips LED lights, you will get the light output you need, and they last for years. Being the leader in the lighting industry, their range of top quality LED tubes, lamps, and bulbs offer you superior lighting and have a long rated lifespan of 40,000 hours. Their competitive pricing and energy efficiency mean these lights will pay for themselves in less than a year and will save you almost 90% on your energy costs. All Philips LED lamps come as a simple retrofit replacement to your traditional light bulbs and are therefore suitable for all general lighting purposes.

Additionally, the Philips LED range is eco-friendly;, they do not contain harmful chemicals like mercury or lead, unlike fluorescent lamps. The high energy savings mean you can also reduce your carbon footprint substantially. Your maintenance costs will drop, since you will no longer be replacing failed lamps and tubes all the time, leading to high lifetime cost of ownership savings. Thanks to their long lifetime, they are a fit and forgetsolution.

Aren’t you getting tired of inefficient lighting from traditional halogen, CFL, and incandescent lamps? Although these lamps are cheap, they fail to give you the same amount of brightness as LEDs, and their operating lifetimes are very short. Generally you will see these lamps fail in as little as 1000hours, which means you will be up on ladders replacing them, and spending money on new lamps.. What’s more, halogen lamps produce a lot of heat and consume enormous amounts of electricity to produce light (up to 90% more than LEDs). Thus, you are left you with a huge energy bill as well.

Wouldn’t it be easier to just use quality LED lamps or bulbs instead? They are durable, lasting up to 50,000hours (many years of operation), and will not lose their brightness significantly even after using them for lengthy periods. With LED lamps, you will always get the brightest quality of light, which is far superior to any halogen. These lamps are available from several major brands in the lighting industry, the leader being Philips.

Novel Energy Lighting provides you with a wide range of Philips LED bulbs, tubes, lamps, candles, panels etc. One of the most notable Philips products is the Philips Master LED MR16 lamp. This quality product is well known for being an ideal retrofit for all spot and general lighting purposes, thus making it suitable for use in public areas as well as homes and offices. It is a most cost-effective substitute for traditional halogen lamps, and we say ‘cost-effective’ because it reduces your energy costs by 80%. In other words, this lamp pays for itself in less than a year. It even comes with an peace-of-mind 5 year warranty period.

Another fascinating feature of this particular Philips LED product, is the patented TransforMax technology, which allows the MR16 lamp to work on a majority of transformers and dimmers. And its Airflux technology facilitates passive cooling of this lamp, thus preventing it from getting overheated if used for prolonged periods. This lamp available in 7W=35W, 7W=40W, and 10W=50W dimmable versions, which means that it is a retrofit replacement to most standard halogen lamps and due to its efficient use of energy, its lasts for about 40,000 hours.

The additional benefit you get from using these LED products is that they do not emit any UV or IR rays, making them ideal for heat sensitive objects. And an added perk of using LED lights is that they are designed to reduce your maintenance costs without compromising on brightness.

At Novel Energy Lighting, you will find many Philips LED lamps in a variety of wattages, colour temperatures, and beam angles as a retrofit replacement for almost all traditional bulb types on the market. They come in both dimmable and non-dimmable variety, where the non-dimmable offer real value for money for those areas where dimming is not required much. But that’s not all, we supply many other carefully selected LED products  from several trusted manufacturers, available at very reasonable prices

Most people are unaware of the negative effects of traditional fluorescent tubes and bulbs for lighting. Fluorescent bulbs emit a decent amount of light but almost 20% of the input energy used by them is converted into heat.  This is wasteful, and with the ever increasing price of energy, hikes up your electricity bill. Moreover, fluorescent tubes and bulbs have a short lifespan since they use high voltage as startup (as much as 300 volts), which affects durability. In order to start a fluorescent tube the mercury atoms need to be ionized before the arc can ’strike’. It is very common to see fluorescent tubes flickering at their end of life.

LED Tubes

What’s more, fluorescent lighting is not environmentally safe, since lamps and tubes it contain mercury and phosphor to produce light, these chemicals are toxic, and get released into the atmosphere when the lamps are disposed of, making them harmful to the environment.

This makes for a compelling argument to switch to a more economical and environmentally viable lighting source. Philips T8 LED Tubes supplied by Novel Energy Lighting can provide you with consistent lighting for a long period of time. These LED Tubes have wattages varying from 8W to 24W for 2ft through 5ft length tubes, to match the output of fluorescent tubes. You will see energy savings of 60% with LED tubes, and more if you exclude ballast, switchgear, and starter from the circuit..LED Tube Lights are very durable. The MasterLED range offer a rated lifetime of 40,000hours (L70) even if used continually. The value Corepro range offer a rated lifetime of 30,000hrs (L70). Our other top manufacturers offer LED tubes with similar long rated lifetimes, and high quality light output to match or exceed their fluorescent counterparts.

And unlike fluorescent lamps, T8 LED Tubes will not flicker or cause short circuits as they are capable of using power efficiently.

Lighting technology has improved over the years. Since the time light was invented to the latest LED lighting technology, lighting has greatly evolved. Up until recently, the mainstay lighting solution for any office or commercial building has been the fluorescent tube. Millions upon millions of these inefficient lamps have been installed worldwide. They consume large amounts of energy within the lamp, and also within the starter/ballast circuit. They contain toxic chemicals such as mercury and phosphors. And they have poor lifespans, lasting just a few thousand hours before beginning to flicker and fail. Sometimes they take a while to light up when switched on. In summary, they are a disappointing lighting technology that has been superceded by a far superior technology – the LED Tubes.

Led Tubes

Most quality LED tubes have rated lives that are far longer than fluorescent tubes,  up to 50,000 hours (L70); long enough to fit and forget, and reduce your maintenance bills. LED tubes consume less than half the energy of fluorescent tubes, which combined with their durability leads to good cost of ownership savings. T8 LED tubes come in all the same lengths that fluorescent tubes do, which makes for a quick and easy retrofit. The Philips MasterLED tube range comes with a 5 year warranty, which guarantees you will make significant cash savings over the lifetime of the tube.  Novel Energy Lighting sells a range of quality LED tubes and tube fittings. Some fittings are IP65 rated for outdoor installation and with vandal resistance casings.
