Caveats: NONE

I am putting the parking lot lighting into the energy model using Trane
Trace 700.

Sunrise and sunset change every day.  What is the best/easiest way to model
the parking lot lighting.  

I know the weather file has the sunrise/sunset information, but I'm not sure
if there is a way to tie this to the parking lot lighting.

As of now, I plan to figure out the length of 'night time' during the
equinox at my location and assume that it is the same every day.  This
should give a very close approximation.
