ADDRESSABLE DIMMING CONTROLS HELP BUILDINGS ACHIEVE LEED POINTS
DANVERS, MA - December 8, 2011 - (RealEstateRama) -- With today’s broad awareness that green buildings offer lower operating costs, increased value and improved ROI, the U.S. Green Building Council’s LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification has become the framework of choice for achieving sustainability at commercial properties. Lighting, which accounts for 40 percent of energy use in office buildings, often dominates the opportunity for energy savings among all electrical systems and can potentially contribute up to 19 credits towards LEED certification, according to Encelium.
