As the challenges around Environmental, Social & Governance (ESG), climate change, sustainability and energy intensify, we need to act with a sense of urgency. Coupled with the energy crisis, the need for solutions that ease pressure on businesses are no longer a ‘nice to have’; they are a ‘must’. Therefore, a comprehensive ‘green’ renovation of the built environment is needed, and LED lighting, with intelligent lighting controls, can play an important role and be a key component, of any building renovation solution.
Societe Generale Equipment Finance Limited (SGEF), a leading specialist for equipment and vendor finance, and Signify Commercial UK Limited (Signify) (formerly known as Philips Lighting) the world leader in lighting for professionals, consumers and for connected Internet of Things (IoT) lighting, recognise this need.
SGEF and Signify have partnered to bring a unique offering combining state of the art lighting solutions with a variety of financial offerings to enable the warehouse sector to invest in new, efficient, sustainable & cost-effective lighting.
Having energy-efficient, sustainable, and cost-effective lighting can play a significant role for any warehouse. However, with the current challenges businesses face, many do not have the funds to invest in such lighting upgrades. On top of this, many businesses simply do not have the time to install, manage, operate, or maintain a new lighting system.
This is where the Light as a Service (LaaS) offering, really makes sense. Instead of making a major upfront capital expenditure (CAPEX) investment to buy, install, and manage a new lighting system yourself; you just pay a monthly fee, and Signify will take care of the rest: Design, supply, installation, and maintenance are all included in the lighting upgrade. LaaS can help you to generate instant savings and optimise your cash-flow from day one. LaaS also helps create a sustainable future and provides benefits that ensure the important goal of reducing the environmental impact.
Positive impact on cash flow
Companies that embrace LaaS can rest easy knowing they don’t have to worry about the practical responsibilities of owning their own lighting, such as monitoring and repairing lights, hitting lighting performance targets and maintaining supporting hardware. LaaS can turn operational costs into an opportunity and can improve cash flow from day one.
The Green effect
LaaS can benefit the climate by making warehouses more sustainable. Highly efficient LED lighting and controls can dramatically reduce energy consumption & carbon emissions of a warehouse. Remote monitoring & reporting from the intelligent lighting system can also help organisations comply with efficiency regulations that will only proliferate as the global climate response intensifies. This reporting may also make it easier to acquire Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certification or other WELL Building standards, which may potentially boost real estate values and trigger green subsidies and tax breaks.
Beside the LaaS offering, SGEF and Signify can provide a range of different payment solutions to match your needs.
