Abstract: Luminaires provide illumination (in some cases, in a coordinated manner with other nodes of a luminaire network) in an industrial process plant and may include one or more environmental sensors to detect various environmental (e.g., ambient) conditions within the process plant. The luminaires may be dimmable, and may be configured to sample light intensity of light provided by the luminaires (e.g., by detecting a dimmer a setting or by actively sensing the light). The luminaires may transmit the sampled light intensities to luminaire manager device(s). The luminaire manager device(s) may calculate energy usage and/or energy savings. The luminaire manager device(s) may generate reports regarding the energy usage and/or energy savings. The luminaire manager device(s) may implement control of the luminaires based on the energy usage and/or energy savings (e.g., to drive energy usage down to a desired level).
