Metrolight provides energy-efficient eHID and LED solutions for high-power lighting. Its ballasts, drivers, and managed lighting solutions are used in retail, industrial, commercial, and municipal installations to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions.
The company is developing a business model and technology platform to bridge the LED and IoT markets. Metrolight's LED2IoT gateway controls and manages the LED system and supports the connection and management of peripheries that ultimately stream data to cloud services. Because LEDs drive installations and retrofits, Metrolight sees each light point as valuable real estate that can provide a platform for value-added services, including cellular, WiFi, video, electric car charging, smart parking, announcements, sign hazard detection, and city management.
The company is currently on hold.

For lighting alone, electricity consumption is expected to increase by 60% in the next 20 years. Today, lighting is responsible for 20% of global electricity consumption and for 6-8% of global greenhouse gas emissions.
Metrolight's ballasts, drivers and managed lighting solutions are used in retail, industrial, commercial and municipal installations to reduce energy consumption and carbon emission by 70%.
For instance, BauMax DIY achieved 40% energy savings by implementing Metrolight’s solutions, and the AB&I Foundry Oakland Plant achieved 60% energy savings.
