The California Lighting Technology Center Displays EverLast® Induction Lighting at the 2010
Governors' Global Climate Summit Held at the University of California, Davis
Jackson, MI– November 18, 2010 – This week, attendees of the 3rd Annual Governors' Global Climate Summit, held at UC Davis took a tour of the California Lighting Technology Center (CLTC), where the center's Outreach Director, Kelly Cunningham, presented emerging energy-efficient lighting technologies. Among the featured emerging technologies was EverLast® Induction Lighting's U.S. line of products, notably the cobra head and garage fixtures
The event was held in a temporary structure near the Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts, where attendees were able to view a live installation of EverLast® 100w U.S. Shoe Box fixtures in the center's parking lot.
The Governors' summit provides a platform for states and provinces to partner to reduce emissions, grow their green economies and influence their national governments towards the same goal. California Governor Schwarzenegger made the decision to have this year's summit at UC Davis to take advantage of the university's long history of world-class research and development in environmental sustainability and green jobs.1 UC Davis has provided their expertise to government, industry, and advocates of sustainable practices for many years.
EverLast® Induction Lighting has been an affiliate member of CLTC for the past six years. A number of innovative lighting solutions have been created through the partnership, notably the UC Davis parking garage bi-level lighting retrofit that resulted in the winning of the 2009 Best Practice Award for sustainability.
The partnership's newest innovation is the BioLume™ Series, which is a patent-pending lighting collection of hybrid bi-level fixtures that utilize a 5000K induction lamp and amber LEDs, coupled with occupancy sensor controls. When the area is vacant, amber-colored LEDs emit biologically-friendly light. When the sensor is triggered, the induction lamp turns on to provide bright white light for enhanced security.
