Abstract

In March of 2004, The Lighting Research Center of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute conducted a postoccupancy case study on the daylit Smith Middle School in Chapel Hill, N.C. as part of the Daylight Dividends program task. Daylight Dividends was established to build market demand for daylighting as a means of improving indoor environmental quality; to overcome technological barriers to effectively reap the energy savings of daylight; and to inform and assist state and regional market transformation and resource acquisition for program implementation efforts. The Daylight Dividends promotes the effective use of daylighting strategies in nonresidential buildings. Part of this effort focuses on impartially evaluating the use of daylight in different building types, reporting those results so that others considering daylighting can see what works and what does not. The Daylight Dividends program is sponsored by the California Energy Commission, Connecticut Light and Power Company, Iowa Energy Center, Lighting Research Center, New York State Energy Research and Development Authority, North Carolina Daylighting Consortium, Northwest Energy Efficiency Alliance and the U.S. Department of Energy. The Smith Middle School case study documents that good daylighting design incorporated at a building?s inception yields positive results in energy savings (64% reduction in electric lighting energy), comfort (teachers and students favor daylighting in the classrooms), and a reasonable return on the added investment (4.2 years).
