Project SummaryModern K-12 classrooms host a variety of activities and need lighting systems that can accommodate them. An assessment of the Integrated Classroom Lighting System (ICLS) from Finelite, Inc., conducted for Pacific Gas and Electric...

Project SummaryComputer workstations represent almost 6% of the electricity consumed in the commercial building sector. This project evaluates the use of a client-server software application to manage the power option settings of networked Windows-based...

Project SummaryThis project will investigate technical opportunities for and barriers to tankless (a.k.a. instantaneous) natural gas water heater use in residential single family and multi-family buildings, initially for new construction applications and in the future, for retrofit applications....

Project SummaryPG&E has commissioned study which will identify, technically evaluate, and examine market readiness for all existing residential air conditioner charge and air flow verification services. Verification service companies train, certify, list and collect testing data for independent...

Project SummaryThe objective of this project is to quantify the savings from the use of solar tubes as day lighting sources in relocatable classrooms. Specifically, the classrooms would be retrofitted after baselining to determine the extent to which the use of solar tubes for primary lighting can...

Project SummarySouthern California Edison evaluated the potential energy savings of replacing obsolete 500W incandescent lamps with third-generation, programmable start, ballasted T8s, also known as Super T8s. The new lighting system is composed of high-lumen F32T8 lamps and ultra high-efficiency,...

Project SummaryThis scoping study builds on the multi-agency Integrated Design Charrette for energy efficient data centers that took place February 2-3, 2003 at the Pacific Energy Center. Scoping work will focus on the areas of uninterrupted power supply (UPS), high efficiency cooling strategies,...

Project SummaryThe purpose of this project is to evaluate and compare the performance of two types of advanced evaporative coolers to the traditional evaporative cooler. The results will allow validation of energy savings and other manufacturer performance information. For more information, please...

Project SummaryThree tools for diagnosing Air Handler Unit (AHU) problems will be demonstrated and compared to evaluate their attributes in diagnosing problems with air distribution systems. For more information, please contact the sponsoring...

Project SummaryThis project includes the design, installation, energy usage monitoring, and user/visitor satisfaction measurement for a High Color Temperature Lighting System at a demonstration site with significant target market visitor traffic. The design will demonstrate best lighting design...
