Energy Conservation Program for Consumer Products: Energy Conservation Standards for Certain Small Diameter, Elliptical Reflector, and Bulged Reflector Incandescent Reflector Lamps

Краткое содержание

Pursuant to the Energy Policy and Conservation Act (EPCA), the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is preparing a notice of proposed rulemaking regarding energy conservation standards for certain incandescent reflector lamps (IRLs) that have elliptical reflector (ER) or bulged reflector (BR) bulb shapes, and for certain IRLs with diameters of 2.50 inches. DOE will hold a public meeting to discuss and receive comments on the product classes that DOE plans to analyze for the purpose of amending energy conservation standards for certain IRLs, and the analytical approach, models, and tools that DOE is using to evaluate standards for these products. DOE encourages written comments on these subjects. To inform interested parties and facilitate this process, DOE has prepared a framework document describing the analytical approaches DOE anticipates using to evaluate potential standards for these lamps.
