This report shows the incremental energy savings and demand reduction of currently available LED channel letter signs over traditional neon channel letter signs. The project assesses and verifies energy savings and demand reductions by measuring the performance of the technologies in a controlled...

This study was conducted to determine the typical energy savings potential of a single compressor...

This report compiles and summarizes current information on market-ready evaporative cooling technologies based on reviews of published literature, public agency studies and manufacturers’...

This report addresses the feasibility of applying peak demand response (DR) strategies at wastewater treatment facilities...

The project’s goal is to determine the feasibility of developing advanced lighting training and certification among all persons that are part of the process of providing lighting systems. In the case of electricians and contractors, CALCTP has already provided for this aspect of the project, and...

SCE deployed and tested LED retrofit kits and LED screw-in replacements at six customer sites with high foot traffic: two hotels, a timeshare, two homes, and a mall. A light meter was used to measure the intensity of the light and customer surveys were conducted before and after...

This project verified the performance of several manufacturers’ products through laboratory tests and compared the resulting data to the manufacturers’ product specifications. The main areas of interest were color temperature, color rendering index lumen output, power consumption, power factor, and...

This project assesses the status of the technology and measure the potential incremental energy savings and demand reductions over halogen MR16 lighting systems. Photometric tests conducted at the Southern California Lighting Technology Center (SCLTC) demonstrate the differences and similarities of...

A new generation of high efficiency display cases has recently been marketed by three of the leading U.S. case manufacturers. This new high efficiency display case requires roughly 40% less cooling load compared to a standard medium-temperature open vertical display case (900 Btu/hr/ft vs. 1,448...

The study, documented in this report, explores performance limits and reliability of electronic dimming ballasts (EDB)for Pulse Start Metal Halide (PSMH) and Ceramic Metal Halide (CMH) lighting. Establishing a benchmark for performance characteristics and expected reliability will allow SCE to...
