DIMMING: A BETTER WAY TO GET MORE WATTS 04 | Light control solution beneﬁts We get more electricity in one of two ways: by generating new electricity or ﬁnding ways to use less of the electricity we already have. Generating new electricity – more watts – requires building more power-generating capacity. Building that capacity is expensive. Using less electricity – more negawatts – requires making smart investments in building technology to control and manage electricity use. And, it’s much cheaper. One of the best ways to generate more electricity – as more negawatts – is dimming, which...

HELP YOUR BOTTOM LINE AND THE PLANET ANNUAL ELECTRICITY USE IN OFFICE BUILDINGS In the UK, lighting accounts for more electricity usage in commercial buildings than any other connected system.1 Effective lighting control is a critical component of an energy-saving lighting design because it can dramatically reduce lighting energy usage over baseline usage. Combining strategies like dimming, switching, daylight sensing, daylighting, occupancy sensing, individual control, scheduling, and limiting maximum output can have a signiﬁcant impact on the amount of electricity used by the lighting in...

Additional strategies used S SCHEDULING 7am: Dim P Provides scheduled changes in light levels based on time of day. 2. D DEMAND RESPONSE Full On A Automatically reduces lighting loads during peak electricity usage times. S SWITCHING A Automatically turns lights off during the day to conserve energy. P PRESET SCENES U Users can select pre-programmed light scenes at the touch of a button. Occupancy or vacancy sensing can save up to 60% energy depending on the application and use. When scheduling is used without occupancy or vacancy sensing a 15% energy savings can be expected.
