Figure 1 shows an example of how natural daylight is supplemented with MASTER

GreenPower during winter. In this example plants are illuminated with 105 μmol/m2.s

GrowthLight (= circa 8000 lux) during 20 hours/day from November until February.

In the remaining lighting period the operating hours is less.

Research to improve knowledge is essential. Philips supports several research

projects that study the process of plant growth in relation to light. Leading

universities in Europe and the USA, together with several growers and

luminaire suppliers, have helped us to determine the most efficient lighting

solution for ornamental crops and vegetables. Our international contacts ensure

that our level of expertise is as broad as possible. A number of commercial

growers with different crops allow us to test new concepts over lifetime. This

approach means that new or adapted light sources are intensively evaluated by

international experts as well as being tested in practice.
