Network Lighting Controls : Basics & Performance *in-person and online
About this Event
Description (Event is sponsored by Hawaii Energy and Hawaii State Energy Office)
Benefits of deploying an NLC system at different level of complexity, functionality and project performance. See what potential for energy and cost savings based on real-case studies, and impact of proper commissioning on achieving NLC savings.
Learning Objectives
- Review Networked Lighting Controls (NLCs), including components, topologies, and protocols
- Compare the complexity levels of using NLC systems on a retrofit basis (on a good-better-best spectrum)
- Explore case studies showing how much energy can be saved by deploying NLC systems, either on a retrofit basis or in new construction
- Consider deployment challenges with NLC installations and ways to avoid problems in the field
Guest Speaker Steven Mesh, LC, IESNA
Steve attended Parsons School of Design in New York City, studying in the Bachelor of Fine Arts program in the Environmental Design department. That included urban design, architecture, interiors and product design – with a special emphasis on architectural lighting, studying under Jim Nuckolls. He has been a lighting designer and educator for many years, designing the lighting for hundreds of projects in the U.S. and internationally.
He has taught architectural lighting at several design schools including the Parsons School of Design MFA in Lighting program. Steve was the Senior Lighting Program Coordinator at the Pacific Energy Center in San Francisco from 2008-2011. He has also been a corporate member of the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD).
He has been a long-standing member of the Illuminating Engineering Society and was the IES/Northeast Regional Vice President prior to moving to San Francisco in 2008. For 25 years, Steve served on the IES Energy Management Committee which updates national energy codes. He has also been a member of the Quality of the Visual Environment committee.
Steve is an EPA Green Lights Surveyor Ally and has been an AIA Registered Provider, teaching lighting classes to architects. He was also part of the development team for the California Advanced Lighting Controls Training Program (CALCTP) and taught the first three “train-the-trainers” sessions to instructors. He has been a Contributing Editor to Building Operating Management magazine and has also authored 40 articles and other training content for the Lighting Controls Academy (www.lightingcontrolsacademy.org).
He won an IALD award for the Palm House at Dowling College and an IES/EPRI (Electric Power Research Institute) award for Brower Commons at Rutgers University. Since 1992, he has given several half-, full- and two-day workshops at LightFair and has spoken at Lux Pacifica in New Delhi, India. Steve has also given talks on lighting in Chennai and Bangalore, as well as cities in China. He is also a private pilot, an Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association “Mentor”, and an Experimental Aircraft Association “Young Eagles pilot”.
