Project Background
The purpose of this award is for the grantee to install a permanent combination of several different sizes of Solatubes to enhance their operation's electrical efficiency. With the Solatube Daylighting System operating during daylight hours, electric lights are off thereby eliminating energy consumption for lighting. The Solatube Daylighting System has insignificant heat gain, so air conditioning or heating are not affected. By utilizing technological advances to improve efficiency, the grantee will reduce costs, conserve limited natural resources, and reduce their carbon footprint.
