One of the main problems with uniform lighting is that it often provides more
light than is needed to perform some of the tasks in the illuminated space. If
all the tasks in the space require generally the same level of illumination,
however, very little of the lighting is wasted. Can you reorient work stations
in your building to take maximum advantage of an existing uniform system? If
so, you may be able to save energy and money by grouping tasks requiring the
same lighting levels and adjusting the light output of the system accordingly.
Additional savings may be possible by placing level of illumination near windows,
to take advantage of natural day-lighting.
