Steve Dyson, Hager UK discusses the current trends in the lighting industry and how pre-fabricated lighting systems can play an integral role in reducing energy usage. It is becoming increasingly clear that the recent explosion in the light-emitting diode (LED) lighting market is set to continue, and to evolve, with studies by AMA Research and McKinsey both predicting huge growth in LED sales and usage. This is hardly surprising, given the significant energy cost savings, lower cost of ownership and reduced CO_2 emissions that are associated with this new lighting technology. While industrial sectors such as leisure and health have been early adopters of LED technology, there are now clear signs that retail, office and other industrial use of LEDs is also expanding.
