Introduction
The EU Standard EN15193/2007, defines the energetic requirements
for lighting. A new term, LENI is introduced, expressed in kWh/sqm/yr,
also, among other things, lighting energy consumption metering.
Calculating LENI in the design stage starts with various hypotheses,
which influence the final outcome.
The Standard stresses the importance of natural lighting and
provides calculation methods.

The increasing importance of natural lighting

Direct impact on the number of hours using electrical lighting
Clear references to the calculation methods
Increase in energy savings using daylight
The necessity for control automation in electrical lighting

The Energy consumption for lighting

LENI

The Standard EN15193 provides

specification for the calculation and
measurement of lighting electrical
energy consumption.

LENI
Lighting Energy Numeric Indicator

The unit of measurement is KWh per

m2 and yr.

Advantages
- Clear and simple evaluation criteria
- Target values for design engineers
- Measurable post-construction values
- Full reconstruction of electrical system
- Lighting controls automation
- Contracters can only be specialised companies

Disadvantages
- Existing lighting 100 lx, according to new standards 300 lx
- Lack of experience in design, execution and exploitation
- A larger initial investment (by 10-20%)

Final Advantage
- Reduction of energy consumption to 1/3 of current levels!!!
- Much lower maintenance costs (lamp life time: incandescent
1.000h, fluorescent 15.000h, LED over 50.000h)
-Clear savings evaluation kWh/mp/an
-Strategy for the future
