There are FIVE solution sets available for Lighting:

♦  LED
♦  Networked
♦  Daylighting
♦  Human Centric
♦  Grow Lights

For most buildings, lighting is a significant component of their electricity costs.

Annually, commercial and industrial facilities use approximately 19% to 30% of their electricity just for lighting.  That makes upgrading their lighting an excellent place to look to reduce their electricity costs.

♦  Although it can be a challenge to specifically pinpoint the exact monetary value of how efficient lighting impacts worker productivity, there is little doubt – and plenty of evidence – that workers are more productive if they are working in a better-lit environment with less glare, better color rendering and no annoying ‘hums’ or ‘flickers’.

♦  A considerable amount of electricity is produced by local power plants to power all those inefficient lights, which pumps tons of pollution into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming, acid rain, and many other environmental problems.  By consuming less electricity through efficient lighting, a building can help reduce harmful emissions.

♦  Retrofit solutions commonly involve upgrading incandescent and fluorescent fixtures to more advanced, lower maintenance LED’s.  Additionally, solutions can include lighting controls, motion sensors, and adjustments to light color and intensity.
