Fundamentals of Energy Efficient Lighting
8:00 to 4:30 Learn how to reduce energy costs and improve light quality in your
office, commercial or manufacturing facility. Lighting can be one of the largest
energy consuming systems in a facility and yet is often overlooked as a source
of energy savings. This course will show you that some of the best opportunities
to save energy in your facility are with low cost and short payback lighting
projects. Mr. Mull will discuss new and emerging lighting technologies that
are changing the industry and making projects that might not have been cost
effective only five years ago, a easy go for implementation with less than
two years simple payback. |
