Effective utilization of daylight sky windows is used specifically for industrial shades. This utilization could prove to be beneficial in power saving. The main aim of the paper is to study energy saving for a closed room using an array of artificial light sources and sky roof widows for illumination. In order to maintain uniform intensity throughout the year in the room, a number of sky roof windows can be placed at different positions depending on the Sun path. This paper reports the energy saved while augmenting the existing electrical lighting system with sky roof windows. For the daylight simulation, the software used is DIALux Evo 10. The roof skylight windows can reduce the electrical energy consumption by effectively using the concept of day lighting without causing much discomfort to the occupants. An array of four 2x2 LED lamps placed at the four corners of the room can be selectively lit to maintain the required light intensity of around 300 lux to save energy by integrating daylight with electric
