    ScottishPower contracts Glamox Luxonic to fit energy-efficient lighting

    Posted: Thursday, April 6th, 2023

    Glamox Luxonic, a subsidiary of Glamox AS, has supplied lighting for three buildings that manage and support ScottishPower’s 215-turbine Whitelee Windfarm, at Eaglesham in Glasgow.

    The Oslo-headquartered company is supplying more than 200 LED luminaires, including ceiling, wall-mounted, downlight, and suspended LED luminaires.

    As well as emergency lighting, for Whitelee’s control centre, offices, and visitor centre.

    The lighting company has provided two buildings at the UK’s largest onshore wind farm, as well as its visitor centre, with high-quality, energy-efficient wirelessly controlled LED luminaires.

    As part of an ongoing refurbishment programme, around 1,000 LED luminaires – many wirelessly controlled – have been provided for four floors of ScottishPower’s headquarters building in Glasgow.

    This is likely to reduce electricity consumption for lighting by around 80 per cent compared to its previous largely fluorescent tube-based luminaires.

    Gemma Rankine, ScottishPower’s general services director, said: “Energy-saving initiatives like this smart LED lighting project play an important role in reducing carbon emissions and achieving Net Zero targets.”

    Loanhead-based FES was contracted as the installer of the lighting at the Whitelee Windfarm buildings, HQ building, and some of the other ScottishPower windfarms.

    Graham Walker, operations director at FES said: “Decarbonisation and energy efficiency are at the heart of everything we deliver at FES, and schemes such as this further demonstrate our continued commitment to working alongside intelligent clients and partners in driving innovation.”
