University Dorm Lighting Controls
Estimated Total Savings: 20-40%
Autani helps maintain comfortable temperatures, avoiding extreme temperatures in the dorms. With smart thermostats, no longer do windows need to be left open year-round to compensate for overheating or overcooling. The wireless integration of the lighting in common areas, plug load controls, and HVAC system controls operating costs while keeping the residents safe and comfortable in a smarter dorm. Facility managers can remotely monitor the dorm and receive maintenance alerts if the equipment is misused or damaged.

Control Strategies
Occupancy / Vacancy Sensing
Turn lights on when occupants are in a space and off when they vacate it. Alternate Functionality: Partial-on and manual-on modes are supported for additional savings and more stringent local codes.
High-End Trim / Institutional Tuning
Set the maximum light level based on customer requirements in each space to prevent overlighting.
Local Dimming Control
Permit occupants to lower the light below the high-end trim for comfort and additional savings.
HVAC Control
Manage smart thermostats and sensors to implement temperature setback of HVAC equipment based upon occupancy or timeclock.
Plug Load Control
Manage control of select plug loads for Energy Code Compliance and the elimination of phantom loads when the building is not occupied.
Automatic Scheduling & Timeclock*
Automatically dim or shut off lighting based on centrally managed schedules.
* Requires Autani Manager or CR02-W.A0.
Demand Response*
Manage lighting and HVAC electrical loads to limit ratchet charges and peak demand pricing periods.
* Requires Autani Manager.
Business Outcomes
- Monitor extreme consumption demands on the heating and electrical systems to ensure the building is operating as intended.
- Log space utilization in common areas for insights on occupancy patterns and operational costs.
- Reduce power consumption during school breaks with flexible schedule management.
- Align energy costs with comfort, occupancy, and safety requirements.
