Occupancy/vacancy sensors, which can automatically turn lights on when you enter a room and off when you leave, are a smart and easy way to save energy in commercial applications.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, lighting accounts for an average of 38 percent of electricity used in commercial buildings—more than any other building system. Utilizing occupancy/ vacancy sensors is a key strategy for saving lighting energy. In fact, Lutron occupancy sensors can typically save 30 percent—and up to 60 percent—of lighting energy in a building.
