Sporting achievement
Zumtobel has helped Aberdeen Sports Village on its mission to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030 by installing energy efficient lighting across its diverse facilities, including an indoor football pitch, sports hall and running track.
The Aberdeen Sports Village aims to inspire individuals of all ages and abilities to embrace an active lifestyle. However, recognising the urgency of the climate crisis, the Village embarked on a mission to mitigate its environmental impact, setting a bold target to achieve carbon neutrality by 2030.
With its expansive facilities, the Village faced unique challenges in its quest for sustainability. With a fluorescent lamp ban looming, among these challenges was the need for an energy efficient lighting solution to replace outdated T16 fluorescent fixtures nearing the end of their lifespan.
This project was not just about upgrading luminaires but about embracing a holistic approach to sustainability while enhancing the overall user experience.
Zumtobel’s award-winning CRAFT II luminaires, leveraging the Venturi and Coandă effect for self-cooling and cleaning, emerged as the cornerstone of the lighting upgrade. CRAFT II Plus was selected for the running track and indoor football pitch, whereas CRAFT II Performance was used for the indoor sports halls and square.
