An indoor (unconditioned warehouse space) performance, energy savings, and reliability study of electronic dimmable metal halide (EDB)(CMH and psmh) ballasts. Laboratory testing of a matrix of lamp manufacturers/sizes and ballasts. Data on photo metrics, energy savings and detected failures for...

This report examines the potential for induction lighting use on four specific sites with applications suited to pedestrian level and low-mast lighting. The four sites and specific applications examined through use of AGI-32 computer modeling are: Suburban retail strip mall with lantern style post...

Recognizing the benefits of benchmarking, the Executive Order (EO) S-20-04 requires all state-owned buildings to be benchmarked with support of the utilities. Because of the requirements of the EO S-20-04, this project was initiated. The main goals for this project are to:Develop software that...

This field study evaluated the demand response (DR) capability of advanced lighting control systems (ALCS) acting on backlit menu boards. Four types of ALCS were installed in five fast food restaurants. The ALCSs were from Daintree Networks, Enlighted, Acuity nLight, and WattStopper. Two sites used...

This study conducted field measurements to evaluate the Demand Response (DR) capabilities of four different advanced lighting controls systems (ALCS). This evaluation specifically relates to Light Emitting Diode (LED) interior lighting in fast food restaurants. The main objectives of the project...

This project was created to develop the National Advanced Lighting Controls and Certification (NALCAC) program. The NALCAC program is being designed to provide significant increases in energy efficiency (EE) and demand response (DR) capabilities in the lighting and advanced controls systems that...
