LED lighting is undoubtedly far more efficient than legacy lighting (Fluorescent, Incandescent etc.) however, if installed with no consideration to control there will still be energy wastage, avoidable costs and unnecessary CO2 emissions.
Lighting control is paramount to managing effective lighting schemes ensuring that the correct light is provided in areas at the right time period. Properly specified and installed lighting control will ensure that artificial lighting is turned off or dimmed accordingly to meet the function or activity, or when an area is unoccupied, or if there is sufficient daylight. This ensures there is no unnecessary use of electricity, eliminating the risk of human error (e.g. forgetting to switch off the lights).
