Increase users' well-being of the co-ownerships association Les Contamines-Montjoie

The Association therefore began a general renovation of its lighting infrastructure. Initially, it chose to be guided by a specialist consultancy in order to draw-up an inventory of the existing installations and provide an initial cost estimate for all the works. Based on the information in this report, the Association decided to resume the project’s management directly, whilst also relying on the expertise of a local installer: GRAMARI, a subsidiary of the FIRALP Group. A decision was made to renew the entire equipment, with LED light
fixtures and installing new lighting points in identified areas.

As the project advanced, a new need appeared: lighting according to need without ever being in total darkness. The Association wanted to adjust the lighting to the movement of residents, to ensure an optimal level of comfort and well-being without wasting energy.

Amongst other things, it is responsible for maintaining service roads, outdoor car parks, green spaces and snow clearing, as well as outdoor lighting. The lighting infrastructure of the Association has not been renovated since it was first installed in 1985. It includes 53 lighting points, most of which are spherical light fixtures, with mercury-vapour lamps,
some of which no longer worked.

• 5 vertical co-owned properties: La Borgia, Les Combettes, Les Pierres Blanches, L’Enclave and Le Nevez
