The CLS technology reproduces , in a completely flexible way , the illumination spectrum of sunlight , ranging from ultraviolet to infrared light . Each colour has an effect on the growth and treatment of the grass , so CLS technology can adapt to the needs of the grass at any given moment , and also ensures that the light reaching each section of the pitch , both in intensity and colour , is appropriate and evenly distributed . As a result , the pitch will be kept in perfect condition for sports practice , regardless of the time it remains inside the greenhouse .
The lighting system will consist of 6,300 variable spectrum LED luminaires , with a total of just over 750,000 LEDs , which will be powered by electronic power and control equipment to individually adjust the luminous intensity of the 5 spectral curves corresponding to the colours ultraviolet , blue , white , red and far red
