Glamox smart lighting for offshore and marine environments
- Published October 6, 2022; updated September 30, 2026; estimated reading time 3 minutes. Status: available. Categories cover offshore wind installation and operations/maintenance, maritime ship equipment and digital/operations solutions, and energy.
- Glamox supplies smart lighting systems for marine and offshore-wind vessels and facilities. The article says an offshore project may contain 5,000 or more lights, while saltwater, chemicals, vibration and steel structures make maintenance and reliability difficult. It cites an oil-and-gas project that once needed three full-time electricians just for lighting maintenance.
- Systems combine luminaires, IoT sensors and Glamox Connect, a cloud dashboard for centralized 24/7 monitoring of lighting activity, maintenance and energy consumption. It can test emergency lighting and generate emergency reports. Operators can monitor installations from shore. The systems cover interior, flood, search, explosion-proof and navigation lights, and are scalable; the page says fixtures are manufactured sustainably.
- Glamox says its controls can reduce lighting energy use by up to 90%, including by switching lights on only when needed and dimming them appropriately. The company also cites reduced light pollution, proactive maintenance, fewer offshore work hours, lower lifecycle costs and longer system life as benefits.
- The article cites a 2019 European smart-lighting market value of USD 3,418 million and a forecast of 19.6% growth by 2030. It also refers to the then-current European Green Deal objective to multiply installed offshore-wind capacity by 25 by 2030. The company was expanding into aquaculture, work boats, response vessels, electric ferries and offshore wind after a decade of smart land-lighting products, and said smartphone control was planned.
