FOI Request - Lighting Controls Utilisation and Improvement

Regarding the current state of lighting controls implementation, utilization, and opportunities for improvement.

As an advocate for sustainable technology, We am keen to understand the efficiency and effectiveness of the lighting controls systems in place within your council's jurisdiction. I believe that optimizing lighting controls can not only lead to energy savings but also enhance the overall comfort and safety of public spaces.

I kindly request the following information:

1) Documentation or reports detailing the existing lighting control systems deployed across various council-managed buildings and public areas.

2) Information on the extent to which the current lighting controls are fully utilized and optimized for energy efficiency.

3) Data on energy consumption patterns related to lighting across different council facilities and public spaces.

4) Any evaluations or assessments conducted to gauge the performance and effectiveness of the existing lighting controls.

5) Insights into the challenges or limitations faced with the current lighting controls and any associated maintenance or operational costs.

6) Any plans or strategies your council has in place to improve and enhance lighting controls for better energy efficiency and user experience.

7) Recommendations or proposed improvements to the existing lighting controls, including the incorporation of innovative technologies or best practices.

8) Any initiatives or projects undertaken to promote sustainability through lighting control optimization.

9) Contact information for any relevant personnel or departments involved in managing lighting controls within the council.
