Each of 396 floodlights use metal halide technology with a 2,000-watt capacity, ensuring the games' visibility on and off the field. The system also complies with FIFA's requirement that stadiums offer a clearer view of the field for players and fans, both those in the stands and those watching the games on television around the world.
EF2000 floodlights are designed to illuminate large outdoor spaces such as sporting venues, racetracks, parking lots, recreational areas, facades, ports and airports, and high-ceilinged indoor spaces such as gymnasiums and performance halls. The same system was used at London's Riverbank Arena, which hosted the 2012 Olympic hockey games and 5- and 7-a-side soccer at the 2012 Paralympics. GE EF2000 floodlights have also been installed in many other venues in the United States, Europe and Latin America.
"We are very pleased to embrace the opportunity to contribute our expertise to lighting this monument to world soccer," remarked Alexandre Ferrari, General Manager, GE Lighting, Brazil. "We have been present at many moments in the stadium's history, including its inauguration in 1950, and we are participating in this new phase, which represents a milestone in the development and modernization of the country's infrastructure - and, of course, a gift to all of us who love the sport."
We are extremely proud of our R&D team and their commitment to developing technology for the future," said Fred Maxik, chief technology officer. "Our aggressive developments and filings for patents illustrate that we continue to be at the forefront of lighting innovation with transformational products."
