Press Release: UKA and Light:Guard sign ADLS framework agreement

Light:Guard GmbH announces that it has concluded a framework agreement with UKA (Umweltgerechte Kraftanlagen GmbH & Co. KG). This covers the equipping of large parts of the UKA portfolio with Aircraft Detection Lighting System (ADLS). UKA is one of the largest energy park developers in the industry.

Light:Guard will install the ADLS system, supply the ADLS signal and carry out the necessary maintenance work. With the conclusion of the contract, 80 wind turbines have already been exclusively bound to Light:Guard. Further turbines are to follow soon.

“We are proud that UKA has placed its trust in us,” says Willi Lehmann, Managing Director of Light:Guard. “UKA is a major player in the wind industry and we look forward to working with them in the coming years.”

By concluding the framework agreement, UKA can easily commission Light:Guard to equip the wind turbines. The processes created in this way enable efficient and smooth project handling.

“The Aircraft Detection Lighting System is an important building block in the realization of our large project pipeline,” explains Stefan Kath, Managing Director of UKA. “Thanks to the framework agreement with Light:Guard, we can ensure that our wind farms comply with the legal requirements regarding light emissions in the long term. This enables the turbines to be operated in a way that is gentle on residents.”

Aircraft Detection Lighting System (ADLS) is a technology that can be used to keep the flashing of wind turbines to a minimum. The airspace around a wind farm is monitored for this purpose. Light:Guard is one of the leading providers in this field.
