Saves energy Homeowners today want to cut costs and protect the planet. With RadioRA 2 they can do both of those things. If you dim a standard halogen or incandescent light bulb by 25% you’ll save 20% energy. Dim more, and you’ll save even more. Less energy used also means reduced CO2 emissions from power plants. With Lutron electronically controlled shades, your customers will be able to lower their cooling costs in the summer or keep their homes warmer in the winter by blocking or harnessing the sun’s energy. Energy-saving strategies: Look for these icons throughout the brochure to help you understand how each RadioRA 2 component saves energy.

Energy-saving solutions The energy-saving benefits of a RadioRA® 2 system go beyond simply dimming or switching the lights. The system makes it easy to manage your home’s lighting to maximize savings.
Electronically controlled shades help keep cooling costs down by blocking heat in the summer and keep heating costs down by insulating windows in winter.

When you dim traditional light sources such as incandescent, halogen, low-voltage, and LED you automatically save energy. You can save even more energy with a number of components and features included in RadioRA 2.
Radio Powr Savr™ occupancy/vacancy sensors are ideal for rooms where lights are often inadvertently left on, such as bathrooms or a child’s room. The sensor turns on the lights when you enter a room, then turns them off when the room is empty (vacancy-only version also available).
Use the “All Off” button to ensure that all the lights in your home are turned off before bed. An “All Off” button on a tabletop keypad on the night stand lets you turn off lights throughout the house from the comfort of your bed.
Program the timeclock to automatically turn off lights when they’re not needed, such as exterior lights at sunrise.
utron customers save 9.2 billion kWh of energy each L year. That’s equal to the amount of energy needed to light 4.5 million homes for one year. It’s also as much CO2 as 2 million acres of trees absorb in one year 1.
