Site Design
5. Exterior Site Lighting
Resources
- We
Energies' Night Aura Program provides design, installation
and ongoing maintenance of exterior lights, offering both
energy efficiency and high quality design.
|
Effective and efficient site lighting improves aesthetics, reduces
energy use and maintenance, and preserves the night sky.
- Provide site lighting appropriate for the security needs of
the site while maintaining an overall "low-lighting profile"
for the complex.
- Use high efficiency lighting (metal halide or high pressure
sodium lamps) with low cut off angles and down-lighting for landscaping.
(LEED™)
- Utilize reflective-type lighting fixtures to reduce or eliminate
glare and provide safer, more human-scaled nightscapes.
- Allow zero direct-beam exterior lighting at the property line.
(LEED™)
- To reduce dependence on high-wattage electrical lighting at
night, use light colored or reflective edges along driveways or
walkways.
