The Philips GreenPower LED toplighting force is the ultimate LED grow light designed specifically for light-loving crops. Engineered to deliver summer-like lighting conditions year-round, it eliminates the excessive heat typically generated by traditional high-pressure sodium (HPS) systems. By using the existing 1040 W plug power infrastructure, this advanced fixture enables growers to seamlessly replace HPS lights on a 1-to-1 basis while dramatically increasing light levels—up to 84% more than even the latest generation of HPS lamps.
With a maximum light output of 3600 to 3650 μmol/s and an efficacy of up to 3.7 μmol/J, the toplighting force sets a new standard for performance. When dimmed to 50% power, it reaches an even greater efficacy of 3.9 to 4.0 μmol/J, helping growers enhance energy efficiency and maintain optimal growing conditions throughout the photoperiod. This makes it a smart investment for both retrofit projects and new builds, offering flexibility and high return on investment.
This high-output LED solution is especially beneficial for crops that demand high light intensity, including vegetables and fruits like tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, and strawberries, as well as cut flowers and potted plants such as roses, chrysanthemums, and alstroemeria. The toplighting force is also an ideal choice for medicinal cannabis cultivation, where predictable, high-quality yields are critical.
One of the defining advantages of the GreenPower LED toplighting force is its ability to help growers shift focus from merely cutting energy costs to maximizing yield potential through higher light levels. By nearly doubling photon flux while using the same electrical input, growers can significantly improve both crop performance and production predictability. The result is higher-quality produce, more consistent outcomes, and stronger profitability.
To accommodate different cultivation environments, the system is available with two beam shape options: a wide beam designed for installations with limited vertical space, providing excellent light uniformity, and a standard beam that delivers the highest possible efficacy for maximum energy savings. Combined with minimal light interception, the toplighting force ensures that more light reaches your crop, not your infrastructure.
When paired with the Philips GrowWise Control System, growers gain further precision through full dimming capability down to 10% of the maximum output. This functionality can operate as a stand-alone setup or be fully integrated into a climate computer or greenhouse management system. Dimming not only boosts system efficacy but also allows growers to mimic natural sunrise and sunset cycles, which smooths daily temperature changes and supports dynamic energy load management.
Ultimately, the Philips GreenPower LED toplighting force empowers growers to optimize plant growth, improve crop quality, and increase yields with unmatched efficiency and control. Backed by expert support from Signify plant specialists and engineers, it offers a powerful, scalable lighting solution designed to meet the demands of today’s most ambitious horticultural operations.
