Sollum Technologies' Abhay Thosar Shares Latest Insights and Dynamic LED Lighting Capabilities

MONTRÉAL, QUÉBEC, CANADA - Sollum Technologies, an expert in dynamic LED lighting for controlled environment agriculture, recently published a blog post highlighting the most important LED lighting qualities for system adaptability and operational performance.

“Choosing lighting based solely on efficiency numbers or price per micromole is an outdated approach,” Abhay Thosar, Chief Horticultural Specialist, shared with AndNowUKnow. “The right LED solution evolves with your greenhouse. It’s not about having the most powerful fixture—it’s about having a system that supports changing light conditions, crop cycles, and operational goals without locking you into outdated technology.”

The article, How to Choose the Best Commercial Greenhouse LED System, highlights some of the key capabilities that set effective greenhouse lighting systems apart from less dynamic systems. This includes the ability to:

• precisely adjust spectrum, intensity, and Daily Light Integral (DLI) in real time so lighting responds to crop needs and external conditions
• manage lighting by zone to reflect differences across a greenhouse floor
• integrate seamlessly with existing control systems instead of requiring costly overhauls
• support the ongoing evolution of greenhouse operations without constant hardware replacement

The insights revealed in Sollum’s latest blog post are backed by the company’s experience deploying dynamic LED systems that help growers achieve consistent output and energy efficiency across seasons. “As greenhouse growers continue to navigate rising energy costs, seasonal light variability, and expectations for year-round quality production, the question of which LED lighting system is truly ‘best’ has become more complex—and more important—than ever,” the company stated in a recent release.

Sollum’s LED systems adapt as conditions change—from natural light shifts to crop cycles and market pressures—providing a solution as dynamic as the industry it was made for.
