In 2012 the Hotel Adlon Kempinski asked OBETA to provide solution for energy efficient LED lighting for the hotel.
The Adlon was aiming for a sustainable solution to save energy and reduce carbon emissions.
The product itself also had to be supplied by a trusted and reliable manufacturer.
The new lighting solution had to complement and not compromise the aesthetics of the hotel. Based on these criteria we presented to the hotel a pre-selection of products.
Eventually the Adlon selected the LED products offered by GE Lighting as they met all requirements.
We selected GE Lighting’s product as we were looking for a LED retrofit lamp that was compatible with our system.
It offers the required colour temperature and lumen output.
We are a luxury hotel and although there is a need to reduce energy – we did not want customers to see any change in light quality. GE delivered on this premise.
Being the inventor of LED technology, GE Lighting is committed to high standards in manufacturing and commercialisation of its products.
This means we are offering products matching the highest quality standards. This is not only related to the performance, but also to long life, light quality as well as maintaining performance over an extended period of time.
All these aspects have a significant impact on the costs of ownership. Not only by reducing the energy consumption directly, but also by eliminating the need of excessive maintenance intervals.
Since the beginning of the year, we installed 7,000 LED retrofit lamps, which resulted in 80% energy savings.
The lumen output per lightpoint is three times higher than before.
The payback of this project will be within one year. All of this supported our decision to partner with GE Lighting.
