The Opportunities for Federal Building Retrofits lighting checklist is
a detailed 18-page guide covering topics from personal light control to
occupancy sensing to load shedding. The checklist gives specific
lighting renovation information for many structures: office buildings,
industrial plants, warehouses, retail, and residential. Originally
designed for the Government Services Administration, it also covers
aircraft hangars and housing. Users are directed to information on
energy-saving lighting products including lamps, luminaires, ballasts,
and controls.
Lighting accounts for 30 percent or more of commercial building energy
use, and new lighting products can reduce energy costs by 50 percent,
according to Ron Runkles, NEMA lighting industry director.
The checklist can be downloaded at the enLIGHTen America website.
