Lighting-related articles on the Net:

Energy-Efficient Torchieres for Residential Applications (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
Over the past 7 years, the Center's Lighting Lab has been pioneering the effort to replace standard residential lighting fixtures with hardwired compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) fixtures.

Windows as Luminaires (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
Recent advances in technology have helped make the window an ally in efforts to save lighting energy. Properly managed, the new window technologies can help minimize unwanted solar gains in summer and heat losses in winter without sqaundering valuable daylight.

UV Waterworks (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
Waterborne diseases in the developing world kill more than 400 children every hour. Researchers have devised an ultraviolet water-disinfection device based on off-the-shelf fluorescent lamp technology that costs $300 and produces safe drinking water for $0.02 cents per tonne.

New Tool for Energy-Efficient Fixtures (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
Researchers in LBL's Lighting Systems Research Group have been conducting a series of studies on the efficiency of a wide cross-section of CFL fixtures using a newly built apparatus known as a "goniophotometer".

Sulfur Lamps--The Next Generation of Efficient Light? (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
Sulfur lamps are a revolutionary new light source that efficiently provide a spectrum of light similar to solar radiation. They are long-lived and maintain their efficiency and light output over their entire lifetimes, unlike conventional sources whose outputs typically diminish by 75%.

Envelope and Lighting Technologies to Reduce Electric Demand (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
By taking an integrated systems approach to combining disparate building envelope and lighting components, we can attain higher energy savings and improved occupant comfort compared to conventional energy-efficient design practice.

Is Demand-Side Management Economically Justified? (From the Center for Building Science Newsletter)
An evaluation of major commercial lighting DSM programs in the United States.
