Explore Energy Savings: Get grants to replace old lighting with modern LED lighting from Lumega
In today's Denmark, where sustainability and energy efficiency are in focus, companies all over Denmark are looking for ways to reduce their CO2 emissions and energy consumption. The lowest hanging fruits are ventilation, lighting and various pumps. Lighting is on the list of the absolute easiest way to lower CO2 emissions. LED lighting technology offers significant energy savings and environmental benefits. In Denmark, companies can take advantage of the Danish Energy Agency's Business Funds to switch to LED lighting, which not only reduces energy bills but also contributes to a greener future.
Understanding the Danish Energy Agency's Business Funds
The Danish Energy Agency plays a crucial role in promoting energy efficiency and renewable energy initiatives throughout Denmark. Among its various programs, the Danish Energy Agency offers government pools aimed at encouraging businesses to adopt energy-efficient solutions like LED lighting.
The support from the Business Funds is given at a rate per kWh saved. The grants typically range from DKK 1 to DKK 1.8 per kWh saved, which represents a significant opportunity for businesses to cover the initial investment in the transition to LED lighting. However, it is important to note that these grants must be applied for before any installation takes place, which emphasizes the importance of proper planning and coordination.

Maximizing Energy Savings with LED Lighting
LED lighting technology has revolutionized the way we light our spaces, offering superior energy efficiency and durability compared to traditional light sources. By switching to LED lighting, businesses can enjoy a number of benefits, including:
Reduced Energy Consumption: LED lights consume significantly less energy than incandescent or fluorescent bulbs, leading to immediate cost savings on electricity bills.
Extended lifetime: LED lights have a much longer lifespan, reducing the frequency of replacements and maintenance costs associated with lighting systems.
Improved Performance: LED lights offer superior brightness and color rendering, creating a more visually appealing and productive environment for employees and customers.
Improved comfort: LED lights can be delivered with smart lighting solutions, so all lighting can be controlled with an app or wireless touch. In addition, scenarios can be set up so that the lights turn on and off for a set period of time.
Environmental Impact: With lower energy consumption and fewer hazardous materials, LED lighting helps reduce CO2 emissions and minimize environmental impact.
Example of energy subsidy
Lumega has helped several types of companies apply for energy grants. As a given rule, such energy subsidy scheme will not make sense if there are less than 100 lighting fixtures. There are a few exceptions such as large outdoor spaces, stadium lighting and other lighting where the wattage per luminaire exceeds 100W each. The industries that most often make sense are listed below:
Office domiciles
Industrial buildings
Shopping centers
Nursing homes
Schools
When calculating energy subsidies, there are several parameters. The operating time has a major impact, as well as the age of the lighting in question. If this older lighting is converted to new modern LED lighting solutions, there is a high probability that a very good subsidy can be obtained. The grant will be transferred directly to your account after the installation of the new LED lighting system has taken place. The example below is from the replacement of lighting in an office building.
The residence had 522 lighting fixtures of various types equipped with 18W, 20W, 55W
They were replaced with our modern LED luminaires of 10W, 8W, 30W
Calculated electricity savings 68 MWh / year
Estimated grant to payout 46.509 kr
