Question 1

As an external energy auditor engaged by the management of a twenty-year-old hotel, you have been tasked with conducting a thorough assessment of their existing lighting infrastructure. In addition to evaluating their artificial lighting setup, you are expected to investigate the hotel’s utilization of natural lighting.

To adequately equip your team for the on-site inspection and energy audit, you need to create a comprehensive proposal encompassing various aspects of lighting and develop strategies to evaluate the hotel’s utilization of natural lighting.

The energy audit should cover both the interior and exterior lighting systems. Apply higher-level cognitive skills to develop a comprehensive energy audit proposal while incorporating analytical thinking to propose effective assessment methods for the hotel’s utilization of natural lighting.

Question 2

In addition to conducting an audit of the hotel’s lighting systems, you have been assigned the responsibility of exploring viable options for the hotel to embrace renewable technologies as a means to diminish reliance on the existing power grid.

You are to appraise TWO (2) potential renewable technologies that the hotel can adopt as part of its sustainable endeavors in the realm of energy efficiency.

Elaborate extensively on the integration process of these TWO (2) potential renewable systems within the hotel’s existing infrastructure.
