Heliospectra's MITRA LED Lighting Solutions Receives DLC Certification

Heliospectra's MITRA LED lighting platform has received its DLC certification. The new certification means MITRA customers meet the requirements for discounts on energy consumption and energy efficiency savings set by utilities in North America.

Design Lights Consortium (DLC) is a non-profit organization with the mission to achieve energy optimization by enabling controllability with a focus on quality, people, and the environment. DLC certification has become a strong third-party quality verification for customers and utility companies looking to verify energy-saving LED technology, including horticultural lighting solutions. Pinpointing "green" solutions and aligning growers with industry and trade allies in favor of sustainable growth.  

The DLC certification is often needed for commercial growers to qualify for states and Canadian provinces' power consumption laws and to meet eligibility requirements for utility rebates, leading to sizeable direct savings in investment for growers.

Energy-efficient solutions such as Heliospectra's MITRA platform considerably lowers the overall energy consumption compared to traditional solutions and the overall operational costs. MITRA is the horticulture market's first truly modular LED light solution.
