According to the U.S. Department of Energy, lighting is the primary electricity consumer in commercial buildings consuming 38% of a building's total electricity—more than space heating, cooling, ventilation, equipment, and computers combined.
Join Brent Protzman and Gerard Darville from Lutron Electronics for a FREE webinar exploring how lighting controls can eliminate 60% (or more) of your building lighting energy spend and offer flexible control of your lighting and environment.
In this webinar we'll discuss the concepts behind lighting controls, the technology, and the opportunities. Additionally, we will explore how lighting controls can save considerable amounts of energy in new and existing commercial buildings while enhancing comfort and productivity. Within our discussion, Protzman and Darville will walk through real-world data, outlining how to identify and estimate potential lighting control savings, as well as provide insight into lighting control applications for different space types in both new and retrofit projects. Additionally, we'll review the mandated current and future lighting control requirements (e.g., ASHRAE 90.1 2010 and IECC 2012).
Real-world case study examples will be applied to each section, including a look at a Pennsylvania college that renovated two gymnasiums and a fitness center resulting in significant energy savings and improved lighting quality.
Learning Objectives
Attendees can expect the discussion and education of the following key takeaways.
- You will be able to estimate energy savings from lighting controls in future projects and buildings.
- You will be able to explain and sell the enhanced benefits of lighting control on human comfort and productivity.
- You will be able to select appropriate lighting control strategies by space type and application.
- You will be able to locate and use incentive programs to reduce the payback period on projects, as well as describe the importance of action before incentive programs expire and code requirements are made more stringent.
