Energy Efficiency in Lighting: The Tip of the Iceberg

摘要

With the increased adoption of LEDs in commercial buildings, watts per square foot have drastically reduced. But have we gone far enough with current energy efficiency standards and code compliance to really drive down lighting energy consumption in a building? What about the decarbonization and net zero initiatives proposed by federal and state agencies? Are current lighting and control technologies and strategies getting us closer to achieving these ambitious standards in a timely manner?
