Energy efficiency isn’t just a buzzword. It's a necessity for businesses
looking to reduce costs, enhance operational efficiency, and contribute
to environmental sustainability.

Sensing Opportunities: Pros and Cons of PIR and Microwave Approaches
Lighting the great outdoors requires a bit more thought now than it did a
couple decades ago. The goal used to be simply packing as many lumens
as possible into a landscape fixture. That was the entire point.
Photocell sensors might have been used to ensure lights didn’t stay on
during daylight hours, but keeping outdoor space fully illuminated –
even when no humans were around – was seen as a key safety measure.

Look Beyond Lumens per Watt for Even More LED Energy Savings
In just a little more than a decade, LED lighting systems have moved
from a not-quite-yet-there technology to one that essentially owns the
market, especially in commercial applications. With efficacy ratings
that now surpass those of once-dominant fluorescent fixtures, LEDs also
can operate for years before needing replacement, versus months for
fluorescent tubes.
