Lighting

Buy a variety of lamps such as Light Emitting Diode (LED) lamps, linear fluorescent and high-pressure sodium lamps. Energy efficiency is the key environmental consideration in selecting lamps. Energy efficiency translates into reduced utility costs, waste and greenhouse gas emissions. 

Expand All

The statewide commodity contracts for lamps encourage the use of energy-efficient linear fluorescent lamps. These contracts offer a take-back program for end-of-life lamp management.

The Participating Addendum with the University of California Master Agreement for LED Lighting Solutions encourages the use of highly energy efficient LED lighting technology. The lamps meet the Voluntary California Quality Light-Emitting Diode (LED) Lamp Specification 3.0 and ENERGY STAR® requirements for further reduction of energy consumption.
