Full Description

With recent developments in solid state lighting driving much of the current interest in lighting upgrades in existing building, utility programs and codes are beginning to promote advanced lighting controls along with lighting upgrades to ensure that the energy benefit from the investment is maximized. To promote advanced lighting controls in utility programs, a new Advanced Lighting Controls Systems (ALCS) energy savings calculator tool has been developed, with funding from Pacific Gas Electric (PGmodes. The calculation approach accounts for interaction between various lighting control modes applied in a single space.
This paper provides a technical overview of the calculation methodology developed for the ALCS Calculator Tool and discusses key concepts of the tools new calculation approach.
