| Today's
innovative buildings are designed to be sustainable, flexible,
and energy efficient. Lutron is committed to helping design
and construction professionals achieve these goals by
offering leading edge product solutions for integrated
control of electric and natural light, and unsurpassed
project support. |
Call
on Lutron's project management teams to help you design
and layout any project, ensuring that the lighting control
strategies complement your unique vision, and meet the
specific requirments of the latest environmental design
criteria, including the LEED Green Building Rating System.

Eliminate
light trespass from the site and building, improve
night sky access and reduce development impact on
nocturnal environments.
Use window treatments and switching to keep the
light within the building and prevent light pollution
at night. Reduce light levels and provide uniformity
ratios by dimming. |
Lutron
design solutions include dimming and
switching
systems, integration of controllable window treatments,
astronomical timeclock scheduling, and "tune-to-task"
managemnt of high-end light levels.

|
 |
Achieve increasing levels of energy performance above the
prerequisite standard to reduce environmental impacts associated with excessive energy use.
Utilize products that conserve lighting and HVAC electricity usage by integrating the
control of electric light energy consumption by 20%-50%. This can typically secure 2 points.
|
Lutron systems can be expanded incrementally and integrated
with other energy strategies to further optimize building energy performance. Lutron controls
are critical in designs that achieve the maximum 10 points possible in this credit. Lutron
design solutions include dimming and
switching systems, "tune-to-task" management of
high-end light levels, integration of controllable window
treatments, daylight harvesting, astronomical timeclock scheduling and occupant-based
sensing.

 |
| Increase demand for building materials and products that are
manufactured within the
region, thereby supporting the regional economy and reducing the environmental
impacts resulting from transportation. Lutron has manufacturing facilities in
Pennsylvania, Virginia, St. Kitts and Puerto Rico. In addition, Lutron dimming
ballasts are key components in fluorescent fixtures made by other
manufacturers. | Lutron may contribute to gaining this point
when Lutron controls
or dimmable fixtures with Lutron ballasts are installed, and
the project lies within a 500-mile radius of Lutron
manufacturing facilities, or the fixture
manufacturer.

|
|
|
 |
| Provide a high level of thermal, ventilation, and lighting
system control by individual occupants or specific groups in multi-occupant
spaces to promote productivity, comfort, and well being of building occupants.
Include personal and local controls of electric light and natural light
including task lighting. Lutron solutions include personal control of light,
"tune-to-task" management of high-end light levels, occupant-based sensing, and
integration of controllable window treatments. |
Provide a connection between indoor spaces and the outdoors through the introduction of
daylight and views into the regularly occupied areas of the building.
Incorporate permanent controllable window treatments
to facilitate utilization
of daylight and provide access to views. Lutron solutions include daylight
harvesting, integration of controllable window treatments and astronomical
timeclock scheduling. |
|
|
|
 |
| Provide design teams and projects the opportunity to be
awarded points for exceptional performance above the requirements set by the
LEED Rating System and/or innovative performance in Green Building categories not
specifically addressed by the LEED
Rating System. Lutron project teams will help you implement your innovative
ideas by incorporating the latest lighting controls into your design. |
