Energy-efficient lighting retrofit solutions -IEA

Participation in the new Task 50 under IEA-SHC on energy-efficient lighting retrofit solutions.

Project description

The purpose of the project is to participate in the new Task 50 under IEA-SHC. The objective of this proposed task is to identify energy-efficient lighting solutions and techniques to improve daylight utilization when retrofitting buildings. The Danish interest for participating in this international task lies in sharing experiences for building retrofits and producing robust evidence of successful retrofits for energy-efficiency, user satisfaction, and financial gains.

Results

The overall objective was to accelerate retrofitting of day-lighting and electric lighting solu-tions in the non-domestic sector using cost effective, best-practice approaches, which can be used on a wide range of typical existing buildings. This included the following activities:

  • Develop a sound overview of the lighting retrofit market
  • Trigger discussion, initiate revision and enhancement of local and national regulations, certifications and loan programs
  • Increase robustness of daylight and electric lighting retrofit approaches technically, eco-logically and economically
  • Develop as a joint activity an electronic interactive source book including design inspira-tions, design advice, decision tools and design tools
