At the brand-new Plant Biology Innovation Greenhouse (PBIG), which hosts CABBI\u2019s research, Heliospectra\u2019s MITRA X LED lighting was implemented together with the helioCORE Light Control System to support this work, enabling controlled-environment studies and optimized crop performance.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\t<div id=\"gap-107343482\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-107343482 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 80%;\">Supporting Sustainable and Energy-Efficient Research<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Energy efficiency and sustainability were key priorities for CABBI. By selecting LED lighting and integrating helioCORE, the facility can dynamically adjust lighting levels based on natural sunlight conditions, reducing unnecessary energy consumption while maintaining optimal growing conditions.<br \/><br \/>The ability to respond to daily light integral (DLI) targets ensures that plants receive the required amount of light without overuse of artificial illumination. Additionally, the lower heat output from LED fixtures reduces cooling requirements, further improving the overall energy efficiency of the greenhouse.<br \/><br \/>\u201cThe flexibility and detail of the lighting schedule is wonderful. Also, the user interface is easy to learn. We can utilize sensors to set lighting based on DLI or set a simple start and end time.\u201d &#8211; Tracy Johnson, PBIG Greenhouse Manager at CABBI.<\/p>\n\t<div id=\"gap-834290814\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-834290814 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 80%;\">Building a Research Facility Designed for Precision and Flexibility<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>CABBI had the opportunity\u2014and responsibility\u2014to select systems that meet current and future research needs.<br \/><br \/>\u201cOur facility is brand new, so everything we installed needed to be functional, affordable, and reliable.

Lighting strategies can be pre-programmed, stored, and reused, ensuring consistent conditions across multiple research cycles.<br \/><br \/>This level of control is essential for research environments, where repeatability and accurate environmental management are critical. The system also provides automatic notifications for power interruptions, strategy completion, and system updates, helping ensure continuous operation.<\/p>\n\t<div id=\"gap-1804661428\" class=\"gap-element clearfix\" style=\"display:block; height:auto;\">\n\t\t\n<style>\n#gap-1804661428 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 80%;\">Creating Optimal Conditions for Year-Round Research<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Before the PBIG facility was operational, CABBI researchers faced limitations with traditional research environments. Field trials are <br \/>constrained by seasonal conditions and unpredictable weather, while growth chambers provide controlled environments but are limited <br \/>in scale.<br \/><br \/>The new greenhouse, supported by Heliospectra\u2019s lighting and control system, provides an ideal balance between scale and environmental control. Researchers can conduct experiments on a meaningful scale while maintaining precise control over temperature, humidity, and <br \/>lighting year-round.<br \/><br \/>\u201cOur researchers like that we can export lighting data and compare it to plant growth or other environmental factors like temperature <br \/>and humidity. Our lights provide enough light to truly extend our day length and optimize plant growth, even when natural day length <br \/>is very short.\u201d &#8211; Tracy Johnson.<\/p>\n\n\t<section class=\"section\" id=\"section_293508944\">\n\t\t<div class=\"section-bg fill\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n\n\t\t<div class=\"section-content relative\">\n\t\t\t\n\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1210578852\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1704189596\" class=\"col medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1605071343\" class=\"col medium-8 small-12 large-8\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover image_radius x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_233199171\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"537\" height=\"447\" src=\"https:\/\/heliospectra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-52-e1776860828711.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Cabbi research centre with Heliospectra lights\" srcset=\"https:\/\/heliospectra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-52-e1776860828711.png 537w, https:\/\/heliospectra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-52-e1776860828711-300x250.png 300w, https:\/\/heliospectra.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Image-52-e1776860828711-14x12.png 14w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 537px) 100vw, 537px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_233199171 {\n  width: 100%;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-47341512\" class=\"col medium-2 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n<\/div>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\n<style>\n#section_293508944 {\n  padding-top: 30px;\n  padding-bottom: 30px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/section>\n\t\n<h3><span style=\"font-size: 80%;\">Enabling a Smooth and Efficient Implementation<\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Throughout the implementation, the Heliospectra team worked closely with the team from CABBI to ensure smooth deployment and <br \/>successful integration of the system.
