In April 2007, more than 100 attendees gathered in Pasadena to discuss how Federal, State, and private-sector organizations can work together to shape markets for high-performance SSL products.  DOE and Northeast Energy Efficiency Partnerships are co-hosting a second workshop in Boston for organizations that were unable to attend the Pasadena workshop.

The Boston workshop will again provide a forum for efficiency organizations, utilities, designers, manufacturers, and others to share insights, ideas, and updates on the rapidly evolving SSL market.  Highlights include:

• Emerging SSL markets for general illumination – timing and niches
• Lessons learned from market introduction of compact fluorescent lighting
• DOE’s commercialization support plan, including ENERGY STAR^®, testing, standards, demonstrations, competitions, and opportunities to participate
• SSL product rollout scenarios - priorities and potential roles for government, industry, efficiency organizations, utilities, and others
• SSL essentials - technology, applications, advantages, disadvantages
