The Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNVB) upgrades to 500 lux smart pitch lighting with Signify

The Royal Netherlands Football Association (KNVB) sought a flexible, state-of-the-art lighting solution for the expansion of its training campus in Zeist. The lighting needed to serve multiple purposes, from training and rehabilitation to hosting televised matches that required broadcast-standard illumination. Signify, working with its Certified System Integrator Oostendorp Nederland, was tasked with meeting this versatile challenge.

Signify implemented its Interact Sports connected lighting software and Philips OptiVision LED luminaires, providing a system that could be controlled from a single dashboard. This solution allows for pre-scheduled lighting scenes and real-time adjustments, ensuring optimal light for all activities. The resulting installation surpassed the average quality of Dutch national stadiums, making the campus suitable for televised matches and reinforcing its status as the heart of Dutch football, all while delivering significant energy savings.
