Energy Codes and Federal Legislation Affecting Lighting Design in 2012

More than at any time in the past 100 years, we are seeing the implementation of comprehensive energy codes and federal legislation that are affecting lighting in unprecedented ways. There are energy codes being developed and implemented at both the state and local levels. These codes and legislative initiatives promote both prescriptive and performance lighting requirements. In this seminar we will discuss the details of the 2009 International Energy Conservation Code; ASHRAE 90.1-2010; U.S. Department of Energy REScheck and COMcheck; the Energy Independence and Security Act, and an overview of individual state energy codes. Our emphasis will be on specific details as they affect lighting design considerations.
