1. Summary

This decision adopts the Lighting Chapter (Chapter) of the California Long-Term Energy Efficiency Strategic Plan, and requires that its adopted strategies be incorporated into energy efficiency program planning and implementation starting in 2011. Like the other chapters in the Strategic Plan, this Chapter articulates a long-term vision and goals and identifies specific near-term, mid-term, and long-term strategies to achieve those goals. Our adoption of the Chapter culminates a long process of collaboration between the Commission, the major investor owned utilities, and numerous other stakeholders.
