The Bright Tomorrow Lighting
Competition was authorized in the Energy Independence and Security
Act of 2007 (EISA), Subtitle E, Section 655, to encourage
development and deployment of highly energy efficient solid-state
lighting (SSL) products to replace several of the most common
lighting products currently used in the United States. Field
assessments contribute to the evaluation of L Prize entries by
conducting field assessments in a wide range of lighting
applications. The field assessments evaluate energy use of the
installed product, the lighting system performance compared to the
existing technology, and user feedback. The objective of field
testing is to obtain installation data and user feedback, in order
to evaluate the product and determine its potential to be declared
a winner. Additionally, DOE plans to monitor the impact of the L
Prize competition through post-prize monitoring of incentive
programs, educational campaigns, and retail promotions and includes
measuring the number of customers reached, bulbs sold, energy
savings, and other tangible benefits.
