The 2013 Lighting Review: Installing occupancy sensors in warehouses

BY STEPHANIE BOYLE, Universal Lighting Technologies

Warehouses tend to have an enormous amount of square footage per occupant, as you would expect from their function. Lighting all of that space when no one is around is pretty much the definition of wasting energy. And yet, some warehouse owners and managers have been slow to adopt automated lighting control technologies, such as occupancy sensors.

In Canada and...
