DOE Proposes Efficiency Standard for Light Bulbs

On Feb. 12, the Department of Energy (DOE) proposed an efficiency standard for general service lamps, marking the next step in an ongoing process that started with the passage of the Energy Independence and Security Act (EISA) in 2007.
The proposed rule is based on months of research and analysis conducted by the DOE's national laboratories, and after 60 days of public input, the goal is to have a final rule issued by the start of 2017. It would take effect in 2020.
