iGEN LETS YOU STREAMLINE
ONE OF THE MAJOR ENERGY GRABS IN YOUR BUILDING
According to the New Buildings Institute
(NBI), lighting alone accounts for about 50% of the electricity
bill in most commercial buildings constructed before 1986. Furthermore,
the NBI reports that automated control systems and energy-efficient
luminaires can reduce lighting energy consumption by as much as
50% in existing buildings and by at least 35% in new construction.
iGEN Intelligent Lighting features vast new digital capabilities
and versatile lighting know-how that will not only help you achieve
exceptional savings, but radically change the way you light a space.
EXCEPTIONAL ENERGY SAVINGS
Occupancy sensing and system scheduling—combined
with iGEN dimming features, such as daylight dimming, personal control
and load shedding—can yield over 50% reductions in energy
use. When modifying layouts to coincide with task locations, additional
savings can result from the use of fewer luminaires.
Lowest Overall Cost
iGEN systems can yield the lowest
life-cycle cost, taking into account the ongoing savings in energy
and maintenance. In new construction applications, the higher cost
of an iGEN system is typically repaid in energy savings within 3
years.

POWERFUL FACTS
33%
Of all the electricity consumed for commercial use
in the United States, about a third goes toward electric lighting.

50%
The lighting portion alone of the electricity bill
in nine out of ten commercial buildings constructed before 1986
– 30% in newer buildings.
