[BLDG-SIM] Hospital End-Use Disaggregation

[Jason Glazer]

Bill,

Lighting can be all over for existing buildings since so 
many improvements have been made in the last ten years.  
One point of reference is the latest draft of ASHRAE 
Standard 90.1 that allows 1.6 W/sqft overall for the entire 
hospital building and specific spaces being 1.0 W/sqft in 
the nursery, 1.2 in the patient rooms, 2.8 in the emergency 
room and 7.6 in the operating room.  Altogether they have 
over twenty different spaces identified for a hospital.  
These are supposed to represent efficient lighting options 
that are cost effective - I believe it is appropriate to 
consider them less than the state of the art.
