The difference is both inside and outside the ballast. Each Green Ballast includes a photocell sensor that interacts with our daylight harvesting technology, allowing each Green Ballast equipped fixture to:

Actively measure the amount of daylight in its coverage area
Harvest this daylight and calculate how much fluorescent light is actually needed to provide adequate lighting
Adjust the power consumption of the lighting fixture accordingly

The Green Ballast

This is an active and continuous process that works independently fixture by fixture, room by room. All controls are automatic, insuring energy savings while maintaining quality lighting for a productive, comfortable and user-friendly environment.

Green Ballast products work as well in a 1,500 square foot retail location as they do in a 1,500,000 square foot commercial office building.

Green Ballast products maximize fluorescent lighting energy reduction and, depending on your building’s exposure to natural light, can save as much as 70% on your lighting costs. Learn More
