According to energyrating.gov.au, lighting can account for 18–40% of electricity usage in commercial premises. With modern LED luminaires using just a fraction of the energy required by traditional lighting methods (such as metal halide), switching to LED will not only reduce your electricity consumption, it also reduces the demand on our energy grid and the natural resources used to power it. Adding options like motion sensors and smart connectivity further increases the potential for energy reduction.
The energy efficiency of LED technology may be well-known these days, but did you know about some of the other ways switching to LED can help with sustainability?
