LIGHTING AS A SERVICE
What is Lighting as a Service (LaaS)?
Lighting as a Service (LaaS) is an innovative, subscription-based model that allows businesses to upgrade to energy-efficient lighting solutions without the upfront capital investment. Rather than purchasing lighting systems outright, companies can opt for LaaS, where all installation, maintenance, and monitoring services are bundled into a single monthly fee.
How Does LaaS Work?
The LaaS model operates on a subscription basis. Here's how it typically works:
Assessment & Planning
Customized Lighting Design
Installation & Financing
Ongoing Maintenance & Monitoring
Flexible Term Options
A lighting provider, like Lights There, will perform an on-site energy assessment to evaluate your current lighting needs and potential savings with an LED upgrade.
We tailor a lighting solution that maximizes energy savings, enhances lighting quality, and improves sustainability.
Instead of a large upfront cost, installation and ongoing services are included in your monthly fee, making LED upgrades accessible and budget-friendly.
With LaaS, we maintain the lighting systems, provide ongoing monitoring, and take care of any necessary repairs or upgrades. This ensures that you always have the most energy-efficient system in place without additional costs.
Depending on your needs, service agreements can be structured to last between 5 and 15 years, allowing for flexibility in terms and ensuring the technology stays current throughout the contract.
The History of LaaS
LaaS has evolved alongside the increasing global focus on energy efficiency and sustainability. Initially, companies viewed lighting as a fixed asset, requiring heavy upfront capital expenditures. As the demand for more sustainable lighting solutions grew, the LaaS model emerged as a way to shift the focus from ownership to long-term efficiency, offering companies the benefits of upgraded lighting systems without the financial burden. Over the past decade, LaaS has expanded across commercial and industrial sectors, driven by advancements in LED technology, the global push for greener operations, and the rise of as-a-service models in many industries.
