Year 2018

ewo’s floodlights have contributed to 52% energy savings for another major airport, with the completion of a flawless illumination project at Munich MUC. This recent floodlight project utilizes ewo’s F–System Large for a homogenous illumination of Ramp 2, with high poles utilizing ewo’s L–Series lenses in various combinations of directional distributions for the perfect lighting. In addition to 511,920 kWh/year savings, annual CO2 reduction for the project amounts to 255,960 kg, creating cost savings of around 148,456 €/year. The benefits of ewo floodlights on environmental and light pollution impact, have also been fantastically demonstrated with a reduction to 0% upward flux ratio, following the installation of the ewo F–System Large units at MUC. 

This precision illumination, evident in these most recent project images, reduces glare for workers at the airport, returning numerous practical benefits for airportgoers and workers alike. ewo, known as a trailblazer in airport LED illuminations, has completed illuminations such as the MUC Footbridge project and an illumination of MAC Forum, the aesthetically driven and remarkably technical custom lighting design challenge. Hannes Wohlgemuth, ewo CEO, said: “ewo has a long, fruitful history with Munich Airport, marked by a constant pursuit of precision and innovation – and this fits in perfectly with our values.” 

Georg Felderer, ewo Lighting Engineer, said: “Our contribution at this airport is an immense source of pride for us and the completion of this apron illumination is a testament to the precision and power of our lighting systems, in addition to previous projects requiring a wider variety of luminaire applications. Our versatility is a true virtue.”

a global hub, made ship-shape for the future

Product R–System gen1 
Year 2020

With 90 million passengers per year, Dubai International Airport is one of the most important hubs in the world. 

Here all the halogen lights have been completely replaced by 1,000 LED floodlights from ewo. What is remarkable about this is a reduction in total number of floodlights at the same time as a boost in the lux value to 30 lx. 

The result: greater precision and considerable energy efficiency. 63% less energy consumption from 2,200 kW to 810 kW, with annual energy savings of 7,000 MWh. 

“Safety is the crucial issue in air traffic, and lighting is of paramount importance. Lighting on the apron enhances safety when important standards are met, when it is durable and reliable. Our R–System will do this – no compromises.”
