Commercial Lighting Solutions, Webtool Peer Review Report.

DE2009958007

Publication Date	2009
Personal Author	Jones, C. C.; Meyer, T. A.
Page Count	65
Abstract	The Commercial Lighting Solutions (CLS) project directly supports the U.S. Department of Energy's Commercial Building Energy Alliance efforts to design high performance buildings. CLS creates energy efficient best practice lighting designs for widespread use, and they are made available to users via an interactive webtool that both educates and guides the end user through the application of the Lighting Solutions. This report summarizes the peer review of the beta version of the CLS webtool, which contains retail box lighting solutions. The methodology for the peer review process included data collection (stakeholder input), analysis of the comments, and organization of the input into categories for prioritization of the comments against a set of criteria. Based on this process, recommendations were developed about which feedback should be addressed for the release of version 1.0 of the webtool at the Lightfair conference in New York City in May 2009. Due to the volume of data (approx. 500 comments) the methodology for addressing the peer review comments was central to the success of the ultimate goal of improving the tool. The report provides a list of the top ten most significant and relevant improvements that will be made within the webtool for version 1.0 as well as appendices containing the short-term priorities in additional detail. Peer review comments that are considered high priority by the reviewers and the CLS team but cannot be completed for Version 1.0 are listed as long-term recommendations.
