New Department of Energy Lighting StandardsJune 23, 2011

12T-s Are Getting Dimmer…

• A multi-step phase-out process for the T-12 ballasts began in 2005

• As of July 1, 2010, the Department of Energy prohibited the manufacture of T-12 magnetic ballasts

• Beginning July 14, 2012 many T-12 bulbs will be phased out of production and will not be available

New DOE Standards

• Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007• Effective July 14, 2012• Affects linear and U-shaped fluorescent lamps and

halogen PAR lamps• Implements lumens per watt (LPW) regulations for

linear fluorescent and halogen PAR lamps• Will result in eliminating 4 foot T-12 bulbs, most 8

foot T-12 bulbs and some 4 foot T-8 bulbs• Will result in eliminating all standard halogen PAR 20,

PAR38 and PAR 38 within 40-250 watt range

The standard A19 incandescent bulb can no longer be manufactured for sale in the U.S. based on the following

schedule:

Will it Make a Difference?

• The Alliance to Save Energy estimated that lighting accounts for 22% of total U.S. electricity usage, and that eliminating incandescent bulbs completely would save $18 billion per year (equivalent to the output of 80 coal plants)

Reflector Bulbs

All incandescent R20, R30, R40, BR30, BR40, and BPAR reflector bulbs must meet halogen efficiency levels except:• Lamps rated at 50 watts or less that are ER30, BR30,

BR40, or ER40 • Lamps rated at 65 watts that are BR30, BR40 or ER40• R20 incandescent reflector lamps rated 45 watts or

less

Produce more green energy or reduce the need for energy?

• Which is more cost effective? Which is faster to implement?

• According to the Energy Cost Savings Council, energy-efficient lighting projects alone generate an average 45% return on investment, giving an ROI of just 2.2 years.
