Networked lighting controls (NLC) connect luminaires, sensors, and controllers on a digital network, enabling occupancy sensing, daylight harvesting, scheduling, high-end trim, software-defined zoning, and energy monitoring. DLC field studies measured average lighting-energy savings of 47% (2017) and 49% (2020) across more than 100 buildings each; results are site-specific.
The DLC capability definition covers addressability, dimming, zoning, high-end trim, sensing, scheduling, scenes, and energy monitoring. The evidence ladder is fixed: LBNL strategy ranges (24% occupancy, 28% daylight, 38% combined), DLC 47% (2017, n=114) and 49% (2020, n=194), and the Lantronix Texas K-12 case at 41.4%.
This is the cluster's commercial hub with the strongest owner intent; it carries the fullest evidence ladder and hands off to rebates and TX-PACE.
