Vivo Defence Brompton
Background
VIVO Defence Services is a joint venture between Serco and EQUANS, who are industry-leading facilities management specialists. They have been awarded places on the Defence Facilities Management and Housing Maintenance framework contracts.
- Their purpose is to modernise the lived experience for our Armed Forces.
- VIVO Defence Services embodies both experience and innovation.
- A solution was needed to update and significantly improve the lighting quality across the estates for residents.
Challenge
The lack of quality lighting had implications for health and safety.
- The new lighting solution needed to be easy to deploy, cost-effective to run and provide reliable year round lighting.
- Ensuring the installation works had minimal environmental impact.
- The solution also needed to be environmentally sustainable and significantly reduce carbon emissions.
The Solution
Products — In Action
- After a site visit, we developed a full lighting design and proposal, ensuring the new site lighting would meet British lighting standards.
- A total of 89 AE3 solar street lights were retrofitted and installed across various housing estates delivering a bright and reliable year round lighting solution without noise, emissions or the need for mains power.
- Our expert, in-house installation team carried out the work. The installation took only 2-weeks to complete and was completed in accordance with VIVO’s health and safety regulations.
- This project successfully demonstrates how sustainable solar lighting delivers a year round, commercially viable solution that can help businesses reach their sustainability targets.
Products — Feature
- Our AE3 solar-powered LED street lights are a high quality, year round, permanent solution with no need for mains electrical power.
- They can be fitted or retrofitted quickly and efficiently, as there is no need to install cables or dig trenches.
- Being fully solar-powered means no carbon emissions, no noise, no electricity bills, and minimal maintenance is required.
- The AE3 features a specially developed smart light controller and Passive Infra-Red (PIR) sensor. This ensures there is light, even throughout the darkest winter months.
