LED lighting and Solar solutions for Schools and Universities

The schools and universities face the dual challenge of limited funding and the need to create safe, stimulating learning environments. Powercor understands these unique constraints and offers innovative LED lighting and solar solutions tailored for educational settings. Our focus is on delivering cost-effective, high-quality LED lighting and solar power that enhance learning and sporting experiences, and help schools and universities to save money.

Decarbonisation in schools and universities is creating resilient power supplies

Metering and measurement, LED lighting and solutions such as solar and ground source heat pumps help to decarbonise schools and colleges, reduce energy usage and promote energy-supply resilience. Innovations such as control systems means lighting that switches on and off in reaction to activity in a room for increased energy efficiency. The availability of a reliable maintenance partner is also key to avoid any unnecessary downtime.

With compliance a big issue in schools and universities in the light of increased ISO inspections and HSE focus, our advanced emergency lighting solutions ensure long-lasting safety coupled with remote system monitoring.
