Dear Readers,
Lighting for Tomorrow is pleased to present the winners of the 2015 Residential
Lighting Product Design Competition. This brochure features the award-winning
light emitting diode (LED), organic light emitting diode (OLED), and lighting
controls products.
Bringing the benefits of energy efficiency to the public is a primary focus of the
utility and efficiency program sponsors of Lighting for Tomorrow. Consumers benefit
from lower electricity bills, a cleaner environment, and improved public health.
Utilities benefit from reduced risk and avoided costs throughout the generation,
transmission, and distribution system.
Lighting for Tomorrow supports the effort to bring these benefits to the public. Since
2002, Lighting for Tomorrow has recognized new residential lighting products that are
both energy efficient and exceptional. The competition emphasizes products that
appeal to savvy, style-conscious buyers: products that are both beautiful and highly
functional, so that they add to a sense of well-being in the home. These consumers
appreciate the importance of energy efficiency both for themselves and for society,
but they also want products that support the design sensibility and quality of light
appropriate for their homes.
Lighting for Tomorrow also looks to leap over market barriers that inhibit the adoption
and use of energy efficient residential lighting products. LEDs and OLEDs are
evolving technologies, and since 2006, Lighting for Tomorrow has aimed to support
their successful integration into light bulbs (replacement lamps), retrofit kits, and
fixtures in ways that meet consumer needs. Another significant barrier—according
to manufacturers, energy organizations, and consumers—is the compatibility of
energy efficient light sources (fluorescent, LED, and OLED) with various kinds of
lighting controls. In response, Lighting for Tomorrow has included lighting controls
within the competition since 2010 as another energy saving technology.
2 | 2015 LIGHTING FOR TOMORROW COMPETITION AWARDS
Both consumers and utilities are moving into a future of energy savings with
a systems approach to dimming, integration, and connectivity with other
residential products.
The LED luminaires, LED retrofit kits, LED replacement lamps, OLED luminaires,
and compatible lighting controls were carefully evaluated and scored by a diverse
panel of expert judges based on their innovation, performance, quality, value, and
design. Some products were judged clear winners since they exceeded the criteria
and scored higher than other products in their respective categories. Others were
recognized as honorable mentions or were given special recognition because they
incorporated fresh ideas or contained innovative features of particular interest.
One key requirement of the Lighting for Tomorrow competition for ensuring quality is
ENERGY STAR® certification. All of the products featured in this brochure qualify for
ENERGY STAR, unless otherwise noted on their individual descriptions.
Lighting for Tomorrow is successful in its mission. In part due to competition
publicity, the market for both fluorescent and solid-state luminaires has grown
substantially. There is now an expanding range of energy efficient luminaires
available for every type of home, room, and application. We hope you enjoy and
purchase the products showcased in this brochure. We look forward to supporting
the continued development of energy efficient residential lighting.
Sincerely,
The Lighting for Tomorrow Sponsors

LED & OLED
LEDs and OLEDs
Light-emitting diodes are semiconductor devices that emit light
without using an incandescent filament or ionized gas as with
conventional light sources. There are two main types of LEDs:
inorganic (commonly known as LEDs) and organic (OLEDs).
Given the energy efficiency potential and advantages of these
light sources—plus long life, color tuning, controllability, and
stability—Lighting for Tomorrow supports the lighting industry’s
efforts to advance and design around these technologies.
LEDs are small point light sources and, as a result, are
particularly well suited for directional lighting applications.
OLEDs are diffuse area light sources and provide distinct
advantages for general ambient lighting because the light is soft
and can be viewed directly without added optics or diffusers.
OLED technology is a step behind LED with regard to widespread
adoption for general illumination, primarily due to cost. OLED
products continue to develop rapidly, and are starting to
compete with LEDs in terms of performance.

Build-Your-Own Multiples
The uniquely modular ELEMENT® LED Build-Your-Own Multiples by Tech Lighting place
ultimate flexibility in the hands of lighting designers by utilizing a highly configurable
and expandable grid frame system. From simple shapes to complicated "X" arrays,
Build-Your-Own Multiples LED spot modules are placed into the recessed grid structure
to create the desired lighting configuration and effect. Metal plaster plates and frame
blanks allow the entire system to be mudded in for a completely seamless appearance.
Below the ceiling, optional flangeless trims are available in white, black or satin nickel—
and square or round apertures. The trimless (open) option has an uncommonly attractive,
sleek look below the ceiling without the use of additional trims. Both trimmed and open
housings are available in white or black.

BRINGING EFFICIENT LIGHTING TO THE CONTRACTOR MARKET
In 2015, Lighting for Tomorrow placed increased emphasis on Contractor Lighting to address a price barrier that exists
for products intended for the commodity, contractor, and new construction markets.
Builders and remodelers often convey to energy efficiency program administrators that the product price point is the
determining factor when considering solid state lighting (SSL) fixtures for new construction or retrofitting projects,
even with efficiency program incentives. To address these price concerns, Lighting for Tomorrow sought contractor
commodity lighting products priced under $50 for the 2015 competition and evaluated them as a separate category.
One product for this important market was recognized by the 2015 judging

USHERING A VINTAGE STYLE INTO THE LED ERA
Bulbrite

Series
www.bulbrite.com/nostalgic
In 2015, Lighting for Tomorrow targeted visible-filament decorative LED lamps as part of the
competition to address a growing market segment and energy savings opportunity. These bulbs
go by many names, including decorative, vintage, architectural, LED filament, and designer. Such
lamps are often featured by home décor retailers with target markets typically being restaurants,
hospitality and event spaces, and homeowners. While the market share of these "decorative" or
"designer" lamps is relatively small, a significant opportunity exists to improve the efficiency of
such products with LED technology.
While the judges didn’t identify a specific product for an award in 2015, they did want to recognize
the manufacturers entering this product category, as well as the significant improvements
that have been made to LED visible-filament lamps currently on the market. By highlighting the
efforts made by Bulbrite, MaxLite and Satco, Lighting for Tomorrow hopes to see continued product
improvements for the 2016 competition.

Lighting for Tomorrow also asked these manufacturers for insights as to why these types of lamps
can’t meet the ENERGY STAR criteria. What we learned is that LED filaments provide directional
light and are positioned in the lamp to provide more light output from the sides and less light
from the top of the bulb. As a result, these visible-filament style bulbs are not able to meet the light
distribution requirements for omnidirectional lamps. Manufacturers explained that an upward

facing filament could address the light distribution issue, but it would compromise the look of the
bulb such that the lamp would no longer mimic the historic bare filament incandescent. In addition,
some of these visible filament lamps are being offered in warmer color temperatures (2200K) than
what is allowed by the current ENERGY STAR Lamp Criteria. It’s important to note that these products
are highly energy efficient and Lighting for Tomorrow is hopeful they can become ENERGY STAR
certified under a future version of the criteria.

LIGHTING CONTROLS
Lighting Controls
The ways that lighting controls are made, used, and integrated
into today’s residential lighting systems are changing rapidly.
No longer is a lighting control simply a switch or dimmer;
it’s an integral part of the lighting system that expands
functionality, enhances appearance and, more recently, helps
reduce lighting energy use. A particular challenge for control
manufacturers is the growing need to dim and control mixed
loads in lighting situations where incandescent, fluorescent,
and LED light sources are used together. Fortunately, new
industry standards are making the task of matching controls
to fixtures easier, and this year’s control products proved to
be smarter than ever before, displaying features such as
self-calibration to maximize dimming performance and
Internet integration to mesh with the growing use of mobile
apps and personal communication devices.
