Empowering Energy Efficiency: Networked Lighting Controls for Small Buildings

The DesignLights Consortium Mission

The DesignLights Consortium is dedicated to enhancing energy efficiency, lighting quality, and the overall experience in constructed environments. By offering incentives and support for networked lighting control projects, both small and large commercial buildings can benefit from improved lighting solutions.

Pilot Program for Streamlined Installation

The consortium aims to streamline the process of ordering and installing small-scale networked lighting control systems, primarily utilizing Bluetooth mesh technology. This initiative includes creating project installation reports that cater to various stakeholders like installers, building owners, utilities, and occupants. By enhancing communication and reducing return site visits, the pilot program ensures efficient and effective project implementation.

Influencing the Market for Energy Efficiency

Participating in the pilot program allows stakeholders to influence the market for small-scale networked lighting controls, contributing to future energy efficiency developments. With the potential to save 49% more energy post-LED retrofit, networked lighting controls offer substantial savings opportunities for businesses and utilities. The advent of technologies like Bluetooth mesh has made these systems more cost-effective, creating a significant business and energy-saving potential.

Building Size and System Overview

Small to medium-sized buildings, defined as those under 50,000 square feet, are ideal candidates for small-scale networked lighting control systems. These modern systems, often based on Bluetooth mesh technology, offer energy-saving lighting control strategies without the need for complex integrations or dedicated servers. By leveraging these innovative solutions, buildings can optimize their lighting efficiency and reduce energy consumption.

Joining the Pilot Program

By participating in the DesignLights Consortium's pilot program, stakeholders can access valuable resources and incentives to drive energy efficiency projects forward. Engaging in this initiative not only benefits individual projects but also contributes to the collective effort of advancing sustainable building practices. Become a part of the movement towards greener, more efficient lighting solutions for small buildings.
