AES Engineering Selected for Lighting Computer Modelling Project

February 16, 2018

The project, funded jointly by ASHRAE, BC Hydro, IALD, and IES, supports the development of lighting power density (LPD) limits in the ANSI/ASHRAE/IES 90.1 Standard that forms much of the basis for building energy code lighting requirements. Using AGi32 software, the project tasks support the work of the 90.1 Lighting Subcommittee (LSC) by providing computer modelling that parallels the current Excel models used in Lighting Power Density (LPD) development.

AES Engineering provides electrical engineering and lighting design services for building construction projects. They have offices in Calgary and Edmonton, Alberta, and Vancouver and Victoria, BC. The team has a combined 40 years of lighting experience, and includes members of IES and IALD.
