The Use Of Daylight For Interior Illumination System With Window Shade Reflector

, 2017
In recent years, the electric power consumption is needed to reconsider due to global warming and other environmental issues. In order to reduce electric power consumption in office buildings and houses, new illumination system may be a good step to start as illumination system uses about 20-30% electric power in any offices or houses.
