Apologies in advance
The phrase "renewable lighting" was used by a UK Green Party local councillor, its the first time have come across the phrase and believe he has probably got confused with "renewable energy".
His confusion might be expected as he previously referred to my interest in the lighting load power consumption of public buildings as being "virtually irrelevant issues"
This follows my Scottish Green Party M.S.P. being unable to answer any questions about lighting load placed on the grid by the 450,000,000 GBP 5 year old building he now occupies, questions prompted by a newspaper article briefly mentioning that parts of the lighting system were to be `updated` because `energy efficient lighting ` was unavailable at the time of construction.
Appreciate that lighting is rarely at the the top of anyones agenda but is the lighting industry completely invisible , are we failing to ensure the message gets through or is lighting considered "virtually irrelevant" even by those involved in design, construction and use of public buildings?
