Add to My List
-
The bay area, with a total of 88 bays across 2 levels. The field lighting and bay area lights have been converted to LED to save energy. The entire field is illuminated by LEDioc FLOOD ZEST and LEDioc FLOOD URBANVIEW Ⅱ installed on the roof, creating a highly uniform and favorable viewing environment.
-
Designed to minimize glare from the light emitting surface, LEDioc FLOOD ZEST creates a lighting environment able to provide ample illumination up to the furthest depths of the range 230 yards away, in tandem with giving due consideration to light spillage into surrounding areas.
-
Installed on the roof, the uniform light of LEDioc FLOOD URBANVIEW Ⅱ provides even, uniform light across the outfield.
-
The ground level bay area is brightly illuminated with LEDioc MULTILINE, creating an environment players can also enjoy golfing at night. With its waterproof construction, luminaire is built to withstand even the rainfall subjected upon it during typhoons.
Featuring 88 bays across two levels, the Riverside Golf Club is a driving range which boasts a spacious 230 yard outfield with no upper netting. With natural turf laid up to the 120 yard mark, a key feature of the facilities is the authentic feel of the practice environment which is founded on a sense of spaciousness, and is equipped with various facilities including a putting green and practice bunker to help players towards improving their game. Also equipped with a golf studio, a pro shop, and a 150 space car park, the club is open year round, with summer opening hours of 6:00AM to 11:00PM and winter opening hours of 7:00AM to 11:00PM, and is widely enjoyed by golfers not only from the local community, but also many more who play at courses in the surrounding areas.
In March 2021, Riverside Golf Club undertook an update of the lighting of the field area and the tee box bays to LED. Lighting for the outfield is provided by high efficiency, high color-rendering LEDioc FLOOD ZEST LED floodlights, mounted on the roof of the bay area and replacing the existing HID floodlights to create a high-quality lighting environment with ample light travelling the full 230 yards to the end of the range. Lighting for the bay areas is provided by LEDioc MULTILINE waterproof linear LED luminaires, bringing improved levels of light. Additionally, having factored into consideration how the areas immediately in front of the bays had been considered slightly dark prior to the lighting updates, LEDioc FLOOD URBANVIEW Ⅱ floodlights have been installed on the rooftop at a spacing interval of 1 unit per 8 bays to improve light levels in these areas. With the ability of LED lighting to be switched on and off in an instant, the scheme offers an additional benefit in its capacity to be restarted immediately in the event of any temporary outages - such as those resulting from thunderstorms for example.
Following the lighting upgrade works, spending on electricity has been reduced to approximately 1/3 of what it was, and thanks to the reduced demand value (maximum power level) further savings in electricity costs are anticipated. With positive customer feedback noting the improved brightness, the scheme has succeeded in providing both large scale energy savings and a pleasant lighting environment for nighttime play at the same time.
