CBC/Radio-Canada Switches to All LED Lighting at All TV Studios

CBC/Radio-Canada, located in Toronto, plans to accelerate the replacement of incandescent TV production lighting with more efficient and flexible LED lighting in studios across the country.

CBC/Radio-Canada TV studio will become one of the first fully LED-lit TV news studios in the world after Senior Lighting Director Brad Dickson pushed to try the technology in designs for a new Radio-Canada news studio in Toronto.

The all-LED lit Toronto TV studio reportedly runs on less than what's required for just two fixtures on a conventional rig. Additionally, because the LEDs generate very minimal heat, no extra air conditioning is required.

Radio-Canada studios commissioned in Sherbrooke, Rimouski and Sept-Îles followed Brad's lead in equipping their new studios with LEDs. The Toronto TV studio served as a major feasibility study which proved that LED lighting is the smart solution and the right decision for Canada's public broadcaster.

The first phase of retrofitting is expected to start paying for itself in less than three years. The broadcast company says that the annual net savings will be reinvested to fund LED retrofits in additional studios across the country.
