NATIONAL CONFERENCE ON ENERGY EFFICIENCY AS A RESOURCE Berkeley Lab looks forward to welcoming participants in ACEEE's June, 2003 national conference to a special evening of demonstrations, laboratory tours and displays, along with hors d'oeuvres and California wine, at our research campus in the hills above UC Berkeley. This event will be held Monday evening, June 9th, following the conclusion of that day's conference activities. At the gathering, attendees will view technologies and tools developed at the Lab's Environmental Energy Technologies Division where energy efficiency R&D successes have saved the U.S. billions of dollars. Visitors will have the option to visit our lighting laboratories, where researchers will be on hand to explain their work. Some of the following energy-efficient technologies and programs will be represented: ~ Lighting Research. View a demonstration of new energy-efficient kitchen and hotel lighting systems and learn about recent research on solid state lighting, and on lighting controls. ~ Thermal Distribution-duct tape results. Researchers will be on hand to discuss results from the duct sealant longevity lab, which tests the durability of such sealants as duct tape, mastic, and other commercial sealing products. ~ Demand response. Berkeley Lab is engaged in research to test demand response strategies to reduce load. Researchers will be available to discuss several New York and California r&d activities and demonstration projects. ~ High-Performance Commercial Buildings (HPCBS). Results from Berkeley Lab's multi-year program with major funding from the California Energy Commission will be presented. Researchers will present an overview of the research, and discuss and display some results from the HPCBS projects: Life-Cycle Tools; Lighting, Envelope and Daylighting; Low Energy Cooling; Integrated Commissioning and Diagnostics; and Indoor Environmental Quality. Various controls systems and simulation tools will be demonstrated. Shuttle busses will pick up ACEEE conference participants at the Radisson Hotel at 6:00pm and 6:30pm, returning at 7:30pm and 8pm to the Radisson, with stop-off en route for those who are interested in disembarking in downtown Berkeley.
