Energi Consulting Services Ltd provided lighting design and electrical design services to MPS. Using our lighting design expertise we were able to model an area of the check in space using our 3D visualisation lighting design software. We were able to provide predicted lux levels likely to be achieved by the normal mains lighting and the emergency lighting.

The 3D visualisation which you can move around in real time, enables you to walk through spaces to get a feel for the overall effect likely to be achieved from a lighting scheme. This has benefits for the whole design team and the client. You can see at the design stage, any hot spots and areas of poor uniformity.

We were also able to provide energy efficiency calculations in accordance with ADL2 of the 2006 building regulations.
