Customers who have partnered with Lutron

The New York TimesNew York, New York, USA

“Lutron’s involvement from the beginning was

invaluable. They understood that the ‘quality’

of the lighting mattered as much as anything –

and they were able to deliver a highly sophisti-

cated digital lighting system with a very powerful

control software tool that’s easy to use and that

carried the clients’ wishes to the Nth degree.

Attila Uysal, Principal/Technical Director

Georgian CollegeOntario, Canada

“We really took the time to select the best

technology for our campus. We looked

into full-voltage, DALI, and IP addressable

ballasts. We chose Lutron EcoSystem

because it is the most versatile and

simplest to use. And people love

the single-zone lighting control”

Jeff Choma, Manager of Mechanical

and Electrical Systems, Georgian College

Estimated annual savings:• 70% lighting energy• $137,000• 1,282 metric tons of CO

Access LivingChicago, Illinois, USA

“At fi rst, we weren’t even thinking about

daylight sensing and other ‘fancy’ technologies

because this was a non-profi t’s project and we

just assumed we couldn’t afford them. But we

were pleasantly surprised and decided immediately

to adopt them as part of our plans to be both

universal and green in our design.”

Kerri Callahan, AIA, IIDA

Architect, LCM Architects

“Lutron provided us a simple way

to operate the lighting with all the

different alternatives we needed that

could not be done with a conventional

system — and the energy and money

savings is fantastic.”

How much energy can you save?

1 Optimized by Lutron controllable window shades

2 Reducing light levels reduces heat in the space, which decreases the power use of your AC

system. Typically every 3-Watt reduction in lighting power eliminates 1-Watt of cooling power.

3 Lutron commissioned simulation by T.C. Chan Center for Building Simulation and Energy Studies,

University of Pennsylvania, September 2008.

Typically 60% of your lighting energy, as well as

20% of your heating and cooling energy.

“The place is bustling. There is a clear difference in how

people act and perform in this building. Just recently, when

I asked an employee how he was doing, he told me, ‘I am

great and I have been great ever since we moved here.’ ”

That’s equivalent to:

As much energy as 2,000 windmills produce in one year. 1

Enough energy to light 4.5 million homes for one year. 1

Enough energy to light and power Times Square for 10 years. 2

As much CO2 as 2 million acres of trees absorb in one year. 1
