model occupancy sensors for the lighting system in E-Quest?</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=789331820-16112007>I have a rather
large building (135,000 sq ft) inwhich 30% or so is opperated 24/7 and the rest
is a typical office building. We are including occupancy sensors in each
room but we are unsure how to quantify the savings those sensors may
provide. The only way I understand to show savings is to reduce the
lighting schedules, but I do not know how much. I am finding that lighting
is approximately 30% to 35% of total building energy consumption and savings
here could mean a decent cost savings. Has any one had any experiance with
this? I would appreciate any help you can give me.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
