These interactive webinars will serve to further the technical discussion, understanding, importance and relevance of key technical topics to the ENERGY STAR program and lighting specifications. Each session will feature presentations by multiple technical experts who will speak on the designated topic and provide a forum for open discussion among ENERGY STAR lighting stakeholders.
