#SDG11 Smart Lighting to Reduce Energy Usage in Buildings

Saving the Earth with #AI #IoT & #Sustainability

Buildings are responsible for 27% of operational carbon emissions due to their energy usage. Connecting office building occupancy to lighting can cut that usage by as much as 40%. Motion detectors can reduce wasteful energy usage by illuminating buildings, floors, and spaces only when people are detected. Additionally, light sensors can adjust brightness based on the amount of natural sunlight present to save even more energy. Predicting when and where people will be within buildings with AI is even better.
