Abstract :Considering that energy consumption is constantly increasing along with a gradual decrease in energy resource reserves, energy is the most current and pending issue in today\'s world. Several academic studies have been conducted on the efficient use of energy resources. For this purpose, the idea of \"smart building\" has been proposed to use energy more efficiently in buildings. With building automation systems, which are indispensable elements of these smart buildings, the energy consumption of buildings can be greatly reduced. In this study, the lighting efficiency of a building automation system built at a training point in the Marmara University Mehmet Genç campus, Vocational School of Technical Sciences, was examined. The Sauter Vision Center software program was used at the observation center of the system. The results were analyzed in terms of efficiency by comparing the energy values in certain time periods obtained from the program with the energy values calculated in full use. The analysis yielded a lighting efficiency value of 54%, which was found to exceed the values reported in the literature.
