Lamps Specification Version 2
ENERGY STAR Lamps Specification Version 2 was finalized on December 31, 2015. The Lamps V2 specification replaced the Lamps V1.1 specification on January 2, 2017. Materials related to the revision process are provided below. Partners and other interested parties with questions can contact Taylor Jantz-Sell (EPA) at jantz-sell.taylor@epa.gov or lighting@energystar.gov.
In recent years, EPA has worked with stakeholders to raise the bar for efficient lighting. Building on more than 20 years of partnership to foster the future success of the ENERGY STAR program for lighting, EPA hosted a webinar series in 2016. These interactive webinars furthered the technical discussion, understanding, importance and relevance of key technical topics to the ENERGY STAR program and lighting specifications. Each session featured presentations by multiple technical experts who spoke on the designated topic and provided a forum for open discussion among ENERGY STAR lighting stakeholders. Please visit the ENERGY STAR Lighting Webinar Series web page for more information.
Partners and stakeholders are encouraged to submit comments on the first draft to lighting@energystar.gov by Friday February 17, 2017. Please indicate “ENERGY STAR Lamps 2.1 First Draft Comments” in the email subject line.
On Friday February 3, 2017, EPA will host a webinar and in-person meeting beginning at 1:00 PM EST. The first hour will be dedicated to a review and discussion of the proposals in the Lamps V2.1 Draft 1 specification; at 2:00 PM the meeting will shift to a review and discussion of the draft ENERGY STAR Method of Measurement for Light Source Flicker.

To facilitate an open discussion among stakeholders, EPA will host 2 separate calls on connected lighting and lighting product packaging. These topics generated stakeholder feedback during the specification development process for ENERGY STAR Luminaires and Lamps Versions 2.0 on that led the Agency to believe that further discussion on these topics among stakeholders would be beneficial.

During the stakeholder meeting, there was interest among many partners to have further granularity in the analysis, with regards to run-up time, start time, and R9 values. From this discussion, EPA has provided additional analysis in the slide deck below, as well as an anonymized data set for stakeholder to run their own analyses. This analysis has been performed on data from the Lamps Certified Product List on March 5, 2015. To obtain a copy of the stakeholder meeting recording, please email lighting@energystar.gov
