PRESENTATION : `Research Conducted at ERS and a Parking Lot LED Lighting Case Study'.
The presentation will introduce the function and research projects conducted at the Energy Resource Station. Then an LED retrofit project case study in a Cedar Rapids Hy-Vee store parking lot will be presented. The new LED lighting saves approximately 65% of energy while maintaining similar light levels with better uniform lighting distribution as compared to the previous Metal Halide lighting.
The Energy Resource Station (ERS) is home to the Iowa Energy Center's Commercial Building Energy Efficiency Program; a nationally known research demonstration and training facility conceived of, designed and built by Iowan's; a resource for Iowan's seeking information about building energy efficiency. The ERS is located on the Des Moines Area Community College Campus in Ankeny, Iowa.
This will be a joint meeting with the IEEE Power and Energy Society.
