| Our environment shouldn't have to wait. You can act now and make a difference from the very first day you turn off the lights! |
| No matter what your personal view on environmental affairs, it is inarguable that anytime we can reduce carbon and toxic gas emissions into our air, we are better off. In other words, why use coal and petroleum based electricity to drive artificial lights when there is free light from the sun. |
 | 68% of U.S. electricity comes from coal-fired or petroleum | |
| based plants. | ||
| Choosing green building technologies can translate to PR value | |
| and increased stock value | ||
| A single "big box" retailer can reduce over 600,000 lbs. of toxic | |
| green-house gasses in a single year by incorporating daylighting |
| A reduction in energy use alone will provide a 10%-35% Return on Investment! |
| A reduction in energy bills is certainly the attention-getter when considering daylighting. With more utilities implementing peak demand rates, the incentive has never been greater. An unexpected benefit mentioned by current customers is the reduction in maintenance and longer life of their installed artificial lighting systems. |
| Humans perform and feel better under daylight when compared to artificial light----Period. What's left to discover is just how much better |
| After you've calculated your potential for energy savings, you might reflect on the fact that only 3% of the overhead of a building is energy. Almost 94% is the cost of supporting people within the building. Now you can see where even a small increase in productivity or morale can translate into big returns. It just may be the competitive advantage you need. |

| Welcome to the Daylighting Revolution! Smart Skylights that use Solar powered GPS sun-tracking technology with mirrors to track the sun throughout the day to illuminate buildings using natural light. Smart Skylights are a solar powered lighting solution for building interiors and allow users to shut off electric lights for up to 10 hours a day. Designed with thermal heat traps, Smart Skylights provide up to 63,000 lumens of lights without the heat associated with normal lights. Reduce lighting costs by 40-80%. The result is a FREE source of abundant, bright, diffused, healthy sunlight, just as nature intended. It no longer makes sense to construct a building anymore without daylighting. Smart Skylights are saving the planet one building at a time. |

Daylighting is the technique of bringing
natural light into a space and using it
to enhance the space's visual quality as
well as energy performance. Quality
daylighting design practices had fallen
out of favor, but are experiencing
resurgence as energy costs increase and
the sustainability movement gains
momentum. The best daylight design
begins early and integrates many
aspects of building design, from
building massing to fenestration
attributes to lighting controls.
