The Challenge
This German chemical manufacturer faced outdated lighting infrastructure that was driving unnecessary energy costs. Across the 15,000 m² facility, including warehouse, parking lot, and facade areas, approximately 60% of lights were controlled manually by on/off switches.
The remaining fixtures operated on basic twilight switches, which meant lights often ran regardless of occupancy. The aging non-LED fixtures consumed roughly 59,450 kWh annually.
The Solution
TRiALED, an Autani partner in Germany, designed and implemented a comprehensive smart lighting solution featuring 169 new LED fixtures, each integrated with Keilton+autani sensors.
THE POWER OF IOT CONTROLS
The sensors provide occupancy detection and daylight harvesting capabilities, ensuring lights operate only when and where needed, at optimal brightness levels based on available natural light.
For the outdoor parking lot and facade lighting, the system uses sunrise/sunset scheduling to automatically adjust operation based on seasonal daylight patterns. All fixtures are managed through the Keilton+autani App, giving facility managers visibility and control over their lighting environment.
The project was completed between November and December 2025. Fixture and sensor installation took approximately two weeks, followed by system onboarding and schedule configuration in just two days.
“The TRiALED team implemented a highly professional project at our site and kept us informed about every single step. With the modern lighting control system, a piece of the future has been implemented.”

The Results
The combined impact of LED technology and intelligent controls delivered dramatic results. Annual energy consumption dropped from 59,450 kWh to approximately 6,500 kWh, an 89% reduction.
- Annual energy consumption reduced from 59,450 kWh to approximately 6,500 kWh
- 89% reduction in energy consumption
- €21,590 in annual savings
- Projected €215,900 in savings over ten years
- Full payback achieved in just 26 months
Looking Ahead
Based on the success of this initial deployment, the facility plans to expand the Autani system to their internal manufacturing halls, extending the benefits of intelligent lighting control across their operations.
