Integrate Lighting and Energy Saving to Create an Ecological Lighting Environment

The 7th Guangzhou International Lighting Technology Summit Forum was held on June 9-11 at the China Import and Export Commodity Fair Pazhou Complex. This forum specializes in "design," "professional development," and "industry interaction." "Case Analysis" and "Technology" featured 12 special lectures in 5 special sessions, attracting lighting designers, landscape architects, architects, interior designers, electrical engineers, municipal administrations, real estate companies, lighting engineering companies, and lighting production. This year's Summit closely followed the development trend of the lighting industry, and in the macro environment of energy saving and emission reduction, industry professionals began to explore the development path of sustainable lighting design. With the promotion of this energy-saving boom, on June 10th, Mr. Joseph Zhang, Vice President of Solid Technology Inc., USA and Deputy Secretary-General of Asian Lighting Designers Association, brought the keynote speech “Lighting Design and Sustainable Development” to the audience. Analyze the relationship between ecology, lighting design and energy conservation, and introduce the audience to the United States about the lighting industry, especially Is a sustainable lighting design incentives.

Sustainable lighting design

Mr. Joseph Zhang believes that human activities must be sustainable and must deal with the relationship between each activity and the natural environment, economic vitality, and human health. Lighting design is one of the activities of human beings. The core of the development of sustainable lighting design is to “apply the correct light to the right place at the right time”. The emphasis is on "light", "time" and "place". Specific to the lighting design process, the light represents how the designer applies light, what light is used, how to select the lighting, and so on, which is to consider the lighting efficiency; time means the rational use of natural light, and pays attention to lighting control; the location includes the lighting environment , lighting position and other content. These three points are indispensable for a complete lighting design.

Lighting and environment

Lighting, whether it is urban lighting, home lighting or office lighting, is closely related to human life. The beautiful city night scene is creating an ingenious city image for us. We have noticed whether the rare starry sky is no longer visible in the eyes; whether the dazzling billboards on both sides of the road shook the driver's eyes; under the bright incandescent light Reading books has already caused the burden on the eyes... These examples alert people to the ill effects of lighting on the environment. Mr. Joseph Zhang believes that to achieve the goal of sustainable lighting design, the lighting industry must clearly understand the various effects of lighting itself on the environment. The main influences include light pollution, the impact of lighting on human safety and health, energy consumption and product recycling. Through the sustainable lighting design for specific environments, the adverse effects of lighting on the environment are reduced to achieve the goal of optimizing the lighting environment, saving energy, and ensuring people's safety and health.

LEED system

What kind of design is really to achieve lighting energy? Mr. Joseph Zhang introduced the audience to the US Green Building Council and its LEED Green System Certification System, which was launched in 2000. From an energy-saving perspective, LEED puts stringent requirements on lighting design. For example, the energy consumption must be at least 75% of the use of space with daylight lighting. The light pollution must meet the minimum recommended values ​​of lighting design standards established by the Lighting Engineers Association of North America. Consider recycling, easy maintenance, and more. China's lighting design can refer to LEED's rating system, construction certificate system and professional certificate system. Mr. Joseph Zhang also strongly encourages LEED certification of Chinese employees and construction projects, which can bring great benefits to project competition and building value-added. .

“If the lighting design takes into account the natural environment, economic vitality, and human health, then this design is closely related to sustainable development.” Finally, Mr. Joseph Zhang summarized this sentence. In the final analysis, lighting design needs to be ecological and energy-saving. Each link must take into account three basic issues of the natural environment, economic development, and human health. Perhaps this will make the lighting design more complicated and the budget cost will be higher. However, relevant government departments and industry associations in China draw lessons from LEED, and the general trend of developing lighting energy saving is visible. Therefore, both government personnel and lighting industry employees are We must pay attention to sustainable lighting design, and integrate lighting and energy conservation to create an ecological lighting environment in China.
