Commercial Building Energy Usage

Lighting, heating and cooling account for nearly 75% of all electricity usage

Lighting also adds to HVAC load and most of lighting energy wasted

Heating and cooling still based on schedules and set points instead of occupancy

Opportunity for networked granular control to track occupancy and save energy

LEDs Highlight The Need For Control Systems

Very long life (50,000 hrs)

Lower maintenance cost

Small heat footprint

Cost dropping dramatically

Super efficient digital light

Dimmable and controllable

Cisco Connect, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, April 29-30, 2014

Fluorescent Lighting • Dimming efficacy poor and

worsens over dimming curve

• Requires dimming ballast

• Dimming shortens lamp life

• FL lifetime 7,000-50,000 hours

• Bulbs are hazardous material

LED Lighting • LED efficacy improves dramatically

when dimmed and no dimming

ballast required

• Dimming, on/off lengthens LED life

• Major LED suppliers are increasing

life estimates from 50,000 to

100,000 hours

• Redwood extends LED life to over

100K hours by running less than

100%, dimming, turning off
