[PRESS RELEASE] Hamilton, Ontario, May 6, 2025, In the CEA sector, LEDs with dynamically adjustable brightness are emerging as an innovation that will change commercial agriculture. For growers seeking to enhance crop quality, reduce energy consumption, and gain greater control over their environment, dynamically tunable LED lighting may offer significant benefits—if implemented thoughtfully.
Tunable spectrum LED systems offer growers unprecedented control over the light environment—allowing real-time adjustment of light intensity and spectral composition to optimize plant growth, improve morphology, and boost yields. These advanced LED systems are attractive for specialty crop producers and anyone looking to improve their operation. They offer customizable light recipes as well as energy savings.
Is dynamic LED lighting suitable for all operations? They wrote a blog post entitled “Dynamic Lighting for Commercial Horticulture: Is it the Future?” P.L. Light Systems explores the potential for this innovative technology to transform the way growers work, as well as the challenges they may encounter in the field. The article offers a balanced look at both the opportunities and complexities of the technology—including its impact on light intensity, the need for spectral expertise, integration with existing climate control systems, and higher initial costs compared to fixed-spectrum LEDs.
Topics covered include:
· Customizable light recipes for crop-specific optimization
· Trade-offs between spectral tuning and light intensity
· Compatibility with industry-standard climate control systems
· Cost-benefit considerations for commercial operations
The potential of tunable LED lighting to change the way commercial growers take care of their crops is huge, but there’s no one solution that fits all. said Todd Phillips, President at P.L. Light Systems. “Our goal at P.L. Light Systems to give growers the information and balance they require to choose which product, lighting technology or both is most suitable for their needs.
