As the Lexus Wrexham Open approaches, the Wrexham Tennis and Padel Centre is looking brighter than ever — quite literally.
The premier North Wales racquet venue has undergone a major lighting transformation, thanks to a cutting-edge LED lighting system, from Low Energy Designs Ltd.
The upgrade replaces outdated metal halide fittings with high-performance LED luminaires specifically engineered for sports facilities. This move has slashed energy consumption by 64%, significantly reduced maintenance demands, and dramatically improved visibility across the tennis courts.
But it’s not just about efficiency — it’s about intelligence, too. The new system includes Bluetooth-enabled smart controls, allowing facility managers to fine-tune brightness levels and lighting zones via a user-friendly app. From ITF competition-standard illumination to energy-saving low-light settings for training or downtime, the system is as versatile as the athletes it supports.
"Smart lighting gives venues like Wrexham complete control — not just over energy use, but over the entire user experience. It’s sustainable, cost-effective, and tailored to how the space is actually used." — Luke Randall, General Manager at Low Energy Designs.
Despite the scale of the installation, the project was delivered with zero disruption to the centre’s packed schedule — ensuring members, guests, and competitors could continue training and playing without interruption.
With the Lexus Wrexham Open on the horizon, the centre is more than ready to host top-tier talent under the glow of lighting that’s smarter, greener, and undeniably brighter.
