Suita City Football StadiumSuita City Football stadium | Case Study | lighting | Electric Works | Business | Panasonic Global

Suita City Football Stadium is a football stadium in Suita City, Osaka Prefecture. It was built as the home stadium for Gamba Osaka, a team in Japan’s professional football league (J-League). The stadium excels in both immediacy and comfort – the pitch and the stands are close, and all seats in the stands are under a roof. The stadium achieves eco-friendliness through LED lighting and solar power, as well as playing the role of a temporary evacuation shelter and disaster response headquarters in the event of an emergency.

Suita City Football Stadium is a football-only stadium that brings spectators into the action.
Panasonic aimed for an environment that supported gameplay from both the hardware and software perspectives, with light distribution design using glare-reducing LED light sources,
and spatial lighting design that evenly illuminates the field with high lighting intensity.
We also achieved facility solutions that take the environment and safety into account,
including a solar power generator system and an evacuation guidance system.

Glare reduction in the LED light source hardware.

Glare-reducing LED light source hardware technology

Narrow-angle light distribution is created at the source by Panasonic’s original light distribution design. Not only glare across the field, but also glare from looking up at light sources is reduced by minimizing overlapping beams that causes glare. Units are designed to yield the maximum benefit of LED lighting by reducing running costs via energy-savings, long service-life and quick lighting recovery.
