This project partnered with ACE Hardware’s Distribution Center located in Rocklin, CA and tested the integration of High Bay Light Emitting Diode (LED) lighting fixtures with integrated sensors and an aggressive Advanced Lighting Control System (ALCS) to realize the deepest energy savings possible...

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 and demand response capabilities in the lighting and advanced control systems that are designed...

This evaluation project consisted of a commercially available outdoor lighting product market assessment, a comparison of manufacturer claims regarding these products, and a laboratory evaluation of representative xenon products marketed for use in the outdoor sector. Laboratory test results...

The goals of this project are to develop market understanding of the medium commercial segment – to include the key organizational, operational and decision-making characteristics and drivers. Additionally, whole building performance, equipment and system characteristics of this segment will be...

The goal of this project was to develop a list of best-in-class for both PAR30 and PAR38 LED reflector lamps, that not only save energy, but also are likely to meet or exceed residential consumer expectations in their overall performance. In the case of lighting, this means excelling in visual...

This report evaluates the lighting Demand Response (DR) technology installed at the Natural Sciences Building on the University of California, Irvine (UCI) campus. The DR study was conducted by Southern California Edison’s (SCE) Design and Engineering Services...

A hybrid AC and DC platform that is being designed as an open architecture focused on reducing or eliminating inefficient AC to DC conversions between power sources and light sources by converting and distributing power in DC. This platform is designed to improve reliability and energy efficiency...

The goal of this project is to establish a laboratory testing program to verify or refute light emitting diode (LED) manufacturer’s product claims regarding life, lumen and color maintenance of directional LED replacement lamps for use in the retail market. Test results will be provided to the...

LED pool lamp is an underwater lighting fixture used to illuminate swimming pools. A field study was conducted in 2010 under the Emerging Technology Assessment project (ET10SCE1130) which proved that LED pool lighting is an effective technology that can meet the performance of its incandescent...

This study will be to determine the effectiveness of a new lensed tubular daylighting device to provide glare-free daylight into interior office spaces. Additionally, this study will measure actual savings achieved with this innovative daylighting system when operated with advanced lighting...
