Answer» CORRECT option is (a) True For explanation I would say: Energy savings can be achieved from the reduced use of ARTIFICIAL (electric) lighting or from passive solar heating. Artificial lighting energy use can be reduced by SIMPLY INSTALLING fewer electric lights where daylight is present or by automatically dimming/switching off electric lights in response to the presence of daylight – a process known as daylight HARVESTING. |
