EPL Southampton's St. Mary's To Become Europe's First Stadium With LED Floodlighting

EPL side Southampton's St. Mary's stadium will have LED floodlighting installed ahead of the '14-15 season. The new lighting system will be in place for the coming campaign with the club moving in line with Premier League requirements for a higher level of light output. St. Mary's will become the first stadium in Europe with LED floodlighting, 64 years after the club's old ground, The Dell, made history as the first in England to have permanent floodlights installed. Delivered by Vision Accendo, the new system will provide a higher quality of broadcast lighting as well as significantly reducing the amount of energy used when compared to traditional metal halide floodlights (Southampton).
