Philips provides Light as a service to Schiphol

Amsterdam Schiphol, The Netherlands

Schiphol Group, Cofely and Royal Philips have entered into a collaboration for the new lighting in the terminal buildings at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. The light as a service means that Schiphol pays for the light it uses, while Philips remains the owner of all fixtures and installations.

Philips and Cofely will be jointly responsible for the performance and durability of the system and ultimately its re-use and recycling at end of life. By using energy-efficient LED lamps, a 50% reduction in electricity consumption will be achieved over conventional lighting systems.

In association with architects Kossmann.dejong and Philips Design, lighting fixtures were specially developed for Amsterdam Airport Schiphol that will last 75% longer than other conventional fixtures. This will reduce maintenance costs and means that the entire fixture does not have to be recycled, resulting in the greatest possible reduction in raw material consumption.

By applying circular economy principles, Schiphol Group, Cofely and Philips have created a new standard in the transition towards sustainable lighting. The innovative light design also provides a better lighting experience and is part of an extensive renovation of the terminal intended to increase passenger comfort and capacity at Schiphol.
