Energy savings by individual dynamic lighting control

Institut for Byggeri, By og Miljø
Based on the results from pilot project 338-035 a PhD study is conducted to map the opportunities to gain electricity savings up to 25 % through a flexible lighting concept.
Results

The results suggest that the method of adjustment, previously used in the lighting literature, is not adequate to generalize about occupant preferences for illuminance or CCT. Factors that influence occupants’ lighting preference when applying the method of adjustment are identified as: stimulus range, pre-set anchors, adaptation time and control-output relationship of the lighting system.
