Illumination 400

2024-12-24 11:00 - 12:00

Illumination technologies have had a pattern of consuming about 35 percent of building electrical energy use.  That number has been pressed downward with the expanded application of LED luminaires and occupant responsive controls; much of the transformation hastened by the IEEE, IES and ASHRAE best practice catalogs.

Today we run through the development status of these products with specific interest in exterior illumination best practice.  This topic also is covered in the 4 time monthly meetings of the IEEE Education & Healthcare Facilities Committee.

    With emphasis on OB-GYN because educational settlements are where families begin and grow among the young.

    Many research universities have large medical research and clinical delivery enterprises that provide significant revenue.   We periodically scan public consultations for literature that sets the standard of care for the facilities and technologies in these enterprises in education communities.

    The zeitgeist surrounding data centers in higher education embodies a fervent fusion of technological ambition, sustainability imperatives, and workforce evolution, driven by AI's insatiable hunger for compute power.  Today at the usual hour we examine three projects on US campuses with special attention to the safety and sustainability boundaries set by electrotechnical strandards.

    Today we explain our collaboration with other education settlements in the US and other nations.  We conform to participation requirements set by ANSI US Technical Advisory Groups to the International Organization for Standardization but we also have liaison with other universities in the European Union who conform to the participation requirements of their own national standards bodies.
