Smart electrification and lighting control in homes

DESCRIPTION:

A new developed smart home lighting control system is demonstrated in SAB Housing Association Department 75 in Sønderborg, DK. The demonstration site includes 19 double terrace houses, in total 38 apartments. The smart home systems in the apartments control the lighting, electrical appliances, access controls and burglar alarms. The electrification control system can also be connected to the heating control system. 

Remotely from a smart phone app, the user can turn on and off each lighting unit and electrical appliance in the apartment and control the temperature of the heating system. The regulation can also be activated from a central panel placed on a wall in the apartment.  

VALUE

The solution helps households use electricity more efficiently by automatically adjusting lighting and managing connected devices according to residents’ needs and habits. By monitoring and optimising energy use, these systems can reduce household electricity consumption by around 10–15%, lowering both energy bills and carbon emissions. Beyond energy savings, smart home technologies also improve comfort and security. Residents can remotely control lighting, heating and other technical systems, ensuring that energy is only used when needed and that homes remain comfortable and safe. Integrated features such as remote monitoring and burglar alarms provide additional peace of mind, making homes more convenient, responsive and easier to manage in everyday life.

APPLICATION

Applying Smart Home Systems is becoming increasingly straightforward, as smart lighting and energy management solutions can now be installed through qualified electricians and integrated into both new and existing buildings. Demonstrations have shown that these technologies are easy to implement and can deliver immediate benefits in terms of energy savings, comfort and security. Wider uptake can be encouraged through awareness-raising and knowledge sharing, particularly among housing providers, building owners and construction professionals looking for practical ways to create more efficient and user-friendly homes.
