MEAN WELL Unveiled Smart Lighting Solutions at Autumn Edition of Hong Kong International Lighting Fair
As global emphasis on ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) and sustainable development continues to grow, smart lighting has evolved from a simple energy-saving tool into a critical approach for companies to achieve carbon neutrality and enhance operational efficiency. With years of experience in smart lighting, MEAN WELL has observed significant structural shifts in the market driven by growing focus on sustainability. The industry is now evolving in three main directions: (1) “from energy-saving to sustainable governance and ESG implementation,” (2) “from simple control to system integration and multi-technology synergy,” and (3) “from product orientation to service and human-centric experience orientation.”
In response to these trends, MEAN WELL expanded its presence at the highly anticipated Hong Kong International Lighting Fair (Autumn Edition). With its core “2+1” smart lighting strategy, the company is fully committed to capturing the immense opportunities within the global lighting market.
Denny Hu, General Manager of MEAN WELL (Guangzhou) Electronics Co. Ltd., highlighted the evolving demands in the lighting industry. Initially, the focus was on reducing energy consumption and achieving energy savings. However, with the global challenges such as climate change and carbon neutrality, smart lighting has begun to play a vital role in corporate ESG reporting and carbon tracking. Furthermore, traditional smart lighting has progressed from basic controls (such as simple remote switches or motion sensors) to system integration and inter-device connectivity. Lastly, the market now demands lighting that not only provides functional convenience but also enhances health and comfort through human-centric design.
To meet the needs of the rapidly evolving global smart lighting market, MEAN WELL continues to optimize traditional power technologies while enhancing product efficiency. At the same time, the company is strengthening its smart design and customer-oriented R&D approaches to address the diverse requirements of different application scenarios, providing a more human-centered and convenient user experience.
