For the stadium revamp, our client’s key considerations for the lighting system include the quality of light, meeting requirements for televised events and extending the operating hours of the stadium. Working with the client’s needs in mind, we specified 120 pieces of EF2000 fixtures for the MHA Mahindra Stadium. This effectively increased illumination intensity to 1,500 lux without compromising on energy-efficiency and light pollution. The project was completed in just 55 days. At GE, we are committed to bringing green and innovative solutions to our clients that would make the world work better.”
