01Why now
Several rules apply at the same time – some affect the lamps directly, others the energy balance of your building.
T5 and T8 tubes may no longer be placed on the market. Replacements only come from remaining stock – failures get more expensive.
Germany has transposed the EPBD (EU 2024/1275) with its building modernisation act. Minimum energy performance standards are coming for non-residential buildings.
After the Omnibus package, companies with more than 1,000 employees and €450m turnover report for 2027 for the first time – and ask their suppliers for data.
Non-residential buildings with heating or cooling systems above 70 kW need building automation by the end of 2029. Lighting control is part of the concept.
From 2030 no non-residential building may be among the worst 16 % of the stock, from 2033 not among the worst 26 %.
EU taxonomy: installing energy-efficient lighting falls under activity 7.3 (installation of energy efficiency equipment). This can matter for your financing and for customers with reporting obligations.
As of October 2026. Overview, not legal advice – we check which obligations apply to your building case by case.
02Two ways
The LED check is free in both cases. Afterwards you choose the model that suits your project – and always know who pays us.
Way 1no advisory fee for you
We plan and support the conversion with one of our vetted manufacturer partners. You receive the offer directly from the manufacturer; the partner pays us.
Way 2manufacturer-neutral
We are exclusively on your side: manufacturer-neutral tender, offer comparison and award. In this engagement we accept no commissions.
In both ways: business case, funding, emergency lighting and verified savings.

04Savings calculator
A quick estimate with transparent assumptions. Investment, maintenance and funding are assessed in the analysis.
Formula: luminaires × (power today − LED power) × hours. CO₂ at 344 g/kWh (German electricity mix 2025, German Environment Agency). Estimate without guarantee.
05Verification
A conversion needs clean verification: we record a baseline before the replacement and document afterwards what was actually saved.
06Emergency lighting
A conversion is a good moment to look at emergency and safety lighting: it has its own requirements and inspection duties and is often as old as the rest of the lighting.
Based on, among others, ASR A3.4/7, DIN EN 1838 and DIN EN 50172.
07Process
The LED check is free and without obligation. Then you choose: implementation with a manufacturer partner or independent support for a fee.
08Who it is for
Halls, manufacturing, test stations – with long operating hours.
High-bay, handling, outdoor areas – sensors included.
Workplaces, corridors, car parks.
Sales floors, stores, branch networks.
09FAQ
Nothing. The check is free and without obligation – whichever way you choose afterwards.
In the partner model the manufacturer partner pays us and your offer comes directly from the manufacturer. In the fee model you pay us by proposal – then we accept no commissions and tender manufacturer-neutrally.
In the partner model with selected manufacturers of professional LED solutions from Germany. In the fee model we obtain offers from the market and evaluate them against your criteria.
The manufacturer's installation partners or contractors from the tender. We coordinate schedule and acceptance.
Not always. We calculate it for your sites and only recommend what is economically sound.
Yes. We check which programmes apply to your project and help prepare the documents.
There is no direct LED obligation. But minimum standards for non-residential buildings, the end of fluorescent tubes and requests from customers with reporting duties often make the conversion the most economical measure. We check what applies to your building.
