What is Daylighting?

Daylighting is a clean energy solution which harvests the huge quantities of natural sun light in a controlled way and used for internal building illumination during day time.

With the daylighting system installed in a building or a industrial structure, there is no need to turn on the electrical lights during the day thereby, bringing the savings to the energy utility bill.

The hybrid model of daylighting is achieved with Lighting Automation. Our experts install daylighting systems with sensors which help turn on the electrical lights automatically basis the available lux level of the natural light. This brings enormous savings to the energy utility bill with minimum human intervention.
