Smart Lighting & Facility Control Systems for Data Centers
Automate lighting, HVAC, and occupancy-based energy management to reduce costs and boost operational efficiency.
Data Center Sustainability Through Smart Control Systems
Efficient energy use is essential in modern data center operations, and facility automation plays a critical role in achieving measurable sustainability goals. Smart Lighting & Facility Control Systems combine motion-sensing, IoT integration, and intelligent scheduling to deliver optimized energy performance. These systems enable real-time control of lighting, HVAC, and auxiliary components based on occupancy, environmental conditions, and operational schedules. Data centers benefit from reduced energy waste, improved thermal management, and better compliance with environmental standards.
EnergyTechForDataCenters provides tailored smart facility solutions to B2B clients across North America. Whether upgrading legacy systems or deploying new builds, we help organizations harness automation to achieve efficiency, scalability, and control—all backed by our commitment to quality, customer support, and long-term value.

Case Study
U.S. Healthcare Data Center
A major healthcare provider upgraded lighting and HVAC controls at its 24/7 data center using EnergyTechForDataCenters’ smart facility platform. Motion-based lighting and zoned HVAC scheduling led to a 15% reduction in energy consumption and enhanced compliance with healthcare-specific operational standards.
U.S. Edge Computing Facility
To optimize power draw at a rural edge facility, a cloud provider deployed our motion-based lighting and HVAC automation. The system dynamically adjusted ventilation and lighting based on staff presence and server activity, yielding a 13% drop in electricity use across 12 months.
Canadian Academic Supercomputing Center
A university computing facility leveraged our GAO Tek Inc. rack monitors and energy dashboards for a 1.2MW HPC cluster. With improved visibility and usage analytics, they achieved a 12% drop in cooling load and participated in a regional demand response program, earning utility credits.
