Classroom lighting audit

Preparation before the lesson:

• Review the lighting material of the classroom and be comfortable with energy consumption calculation (cf energy and electricity module)
• Instead of making students work at height to check lights power specifications, you can ask to maintenance staff to have a piece of the different types of lighting available in the classroom and in other parts of the buildings

Activity 1: Formative case:

By using resources 1, 2 and 3

• Calculate the academic year consumption of different types of lighting (incandescent, fluorescent and LED bulbs)
• Compare the costs between the different types

After students being familiar to energy consumptions and enhancement measures pursue with activity 2

Activity 2: Classroom lighting audit

• Pick up lighting modules references to determine the type and power
• Count all the lamps
• Calculate the consumption

Compare the costs if they were replaced by LED bulbs including investment and rentability
