Does the institution use motion, infrared, and/or light sensors to reduce energy use for lighting in at least one building?:
Yes
None
A brief description of the technology used:
Most UVa buildings have at least some areas where lighting is control by infrared/ultrasonic occupancy sensors. In many buildings, offices and common spaces are outfitted to occupancy sensors that reduce lighting loads. In our new residence halls,lighting in common areas dims when motion or occupancy is not detected. The University has made a commitment requiring that all new construction be LEED certified. As part of this, the new South Lawn Commons includes daylight harvesting controls as part of its overall Building Automation package.
