Lighting can be a significant part of your energy bill, particularly in commercial premises where lights are on all day. Atlas Electrical designs and installs energy-efficient lighting solutions in Nottingham that reduce running costs without compromising on light quality.
How We Reduce Lighting Energy Use
- LED fittings: LEDs use far less electricity than halogen, incandescent or older fluorescent lighting – often around 80% less than halogen – and last many times longer.
- Occupancy and absence sensors: lights switch off automatically in empty rooms, corridors, toilets and stores.
- Daylight sensors: lighting dims when there is enough natural light.
- Timers and smart controls: schedule lighting and control it from your phone.
- Better design: the right light in the right place, so you need fewer fittings.

For Businesses
Offices, warehouses, shops and schools often see the biggest savings. Replacing old fluorescent battens and high-bay fittings with LED, combined with sensor controls, can noticeably reduce both energy and maintenance costs. We can survey your premises and recommend a phased upgrade as part of our commercial electrical services.
For Homes
In homes, swapping halogen downlights for LED and adding dimmers and sensors to hallways, landings and outdoor areas makes a real difference. See our LED lighting upgrades and outdoor lighting pages for more ideas.
Energy-Efficient Lighting FAQs
Will LED lighting look harsh?
Not if the right colour temperature is chosen – warm white for living spaces, cooler white for kitchens and workspaces.
Can sensors be added to existing lights?
Often yes – we will check your existing wiring and fittings.
