A brief description of the technology used:
UC Irvine makes use of occupancy sensors: both wall and ceiling mount. The choice between single technology and dual technology is space driven due to layout, and the selection is made on a case-by-case basis at the time of installation. UC Irvine has installed bi-level lighting in stairwells throughout campus in addition to extensive recircuiting, allowing for a policy of auto on to 50% manual on to 100% and auto off. Daylighting technology is installed within 15 feet of the window line for buildings constructed within the last three years. Lighting control systems are also used for parking structures, allowing perimeter fixtures to be turned off during daylight hours. All parking structure lighting has been retrofitted to 70W/35W occupancy-based induction lighting.

None
The percentage of building space with lighting sensors:
95
