the Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD), JX Crystals, SAIC, 3M, Honeywell, ROC Glassworks, Array technologies, Edison Electric Institute, several prominent universities, and other national laboratories. In FY 2004, the partnership continued to carry out the multi- disciplinary research and development needed to make HSL a viable commercial technology. Under a contract awarded by the California Energy Commission, ORNL and SMUD in 2005 will install and begin operating an HSL system at SMUD’s Headquarters in Sacramento, CA. ORNL is also scheduled to install an HSL system in a Wal-Mart store in Kauai, HI, in an effort to evaluate energy savings and sales trends associated with HSL daylighting. TVA is also helping to fund new research and development of the HSL lighting fixtures, or luminaries, that combine electrical lamps and optical fibers. The latest luminaries will be available in 2005 as part of an HSL display at the American Museum of Science and Energy in Oak Ridge, TN. 4. Planned FY 2005 Activities Evidence suggests that using sunlight in its natural form in commercial buildings—in which nearly a third of the electricity is consumed by electric lights—is a more practical near-term solution for reducing nonrenewable energy use than using sunlight to generate electricity. However, this statement holds true only if future lighting systems incorporating sunlight offer the features of flexibility, convenience, reliability, and control that are generally lacking in daylighting systems of today. New hybrid solar lighting systems have the unique potential to meet these requirements, assuming the cost of this advanced technology can be made affordable. Research in FY 2005 aims to demonstrate significant cost reductions in the HSL technology while still maintaining the high performance demonstrated in past years. The successful fabrication and deployment of an acrylic primary mirror and testing of a redesigned, simplified, solar collector tracking mechanism and controller are planned for FY 2005. 5.
