The California Lighting Technology Center has developed a series of fact sheets designed to raise awareness of the 2016 Building Energy Efficiency Standards, which took effect on January 1, 2017. These materials are intended to increase knowledge and implementation of code-compliant lighting for California’s residential and non-residential buildings. 

Available fact sheets focus on key areas of the Energy Standards including:

• High Efficacy Lighting
• Lighting Alterations
• Lighting Controls Acceptance Testing
• Lighting Shut-OFF Controls

CLTC developed the fact sheets in collaboration with the California Energy Commission and complementary videos will soon be available on the Energy Commission's Online Resource Center's website.
