Industry Updates

As part of the Luminaire-Level Lighting Control Initiative, demonstration projects showcase the benefits of luminaire-level lighting control (LLLC) technology being used effectively in Minnesota by collecting qualitative and quantitative data. To better understand an LLLC system’s performance and potential energy savings, the LLLC Initiative partners with local businesses by providing technical assistance, monitoring the lighting system’s performance, and sharing the results via case studies and performance reports. This report summarizes the results of our analysis of LLLC systems installed as part of two retrofit projects in 2024.

The LLLC Initiative held the first of three interactive training workshops on the transformative capabilities of luminaire-level lighting controls in Minnesota's commercial buildings.

The primary objective of the initiative is to promote the successful, widespread adoption of LLLCs in commercial and industrial buildings across Minnesota to reduce electric power consumption. To achieve this goal, the ETA team is committed to offering easily accessible training programs, installation support, and valuable resources to lighting specialists throughout the state.
