USA - Energy Conservation Standards for Fluorescent Lamp Ballasts

The Energy Policy and Conservation Act, as amended ("EPCA"), prescribes energy conservation standards for various consumer products and certain commercial and industrial equipment, including fluorescent lamp ballasts ("FLBs"). EPCA also requires the U.S. Department of Energy ("DOE") to periodically determine whether more-stringent standards would be technologically feasible and cost effective, and would result in significant energy savings. In this final determination, DOE has determined that energy conservation standards for fluorescent lamp ballasts do not need to be amended.

The effective date of this final determination is 16 December 2020.

This final determination and the notice of proposed determination and request for comments notified as G/TBT/N/USA/624/Add.3 are identified by Docket Number EERE-2015-BT-STD-0006.
