2. Use of Natural Light
Using more natural light in a commercial space can not only help lessen a building’s energy load but also provide benefits to employees, including improved performance, better sleep, higher employee satisfaction, and increased sales. LED lighting systems on the market today can monitor levels of natural light in order to adjust their output to the optimal levels.
3. Smart Lighting
As smart lighting technology continues to advance year after year, it continues to gain popularity thanks to its many benefits. Since smart lighting works by embedding sensor controls into each fixture, this lighting trend can help commercial building owners cut down on costs and meet energy efficiency codes. Through measuring temperatures, room occupancy, and energy loads, smart systems can adjust to harvest daylight or by turning off in an empty room to keep the building’s energy use within the set parameters.
