ENERGY EFFICIENCY WITH LIGHTING
Lighting accounts for 20% to 25% of all electricity
consumed in the United States. An average household dedicates
5% to 10% of its energy budget to lighting, while commercial
establishments consume 20% to 30% of their total energy just
for lighting.
In a typical residential or commercial lighting
installation, 50% or more of the energy is wasted by obsolete
equipment, inadequate maintenance, or inefficient use.
Saving lighting energy requires either reducing electricity
consumed by the light source or reducing the length of time
the light source is on. This can be accomplished by:
- Lowering wattage, which involves replacing lamps or entire
fixtures
- Reducing the light source's on-time, which means improving
lighting controls and educating users to turn off unneeded lights
- Using day lighting, which reduces energy consumption by replacing
electric lights with natural light
- Performing simple maintenance, which preserves illumination
and light quality and allows lower initial illumination levels.
At Robert Rosen & Associates, we are dedicated
to assisting our customers in reducing all aspects of their
energy consumption. Today, there are new lighting technologies
