Our June Applications Digest demonstrates the industry’s advances toward green initiatives, with stories about the recent Net Zero Lighting Conference, attended by our Mark Halper. Conference speakers explained the nuances of sustainability goals and why net zero yields greater results than offsetting carbon emissions — though the latter is certainly a marker on the path toward improving our collective carbon footprint. Halper noted that speakers acknowledged that decarbonization is an enormous undertaking, but with small steps come incremental gains.

Meanwhile, electronics distributor Mouser is on its way toward energy savings and efficiency in its Dallas-Forth Worth facility, thanks to a Power over Ethernet system including LED lighting and low-voltage DC power infrastructure. And we learned about the work that Aelius LED is doing to develop a greater understanding in cultivators of horticultural lighting fixture efficacy, light output, and specific properties that improve crops.
