Since 2002, the Lighting for Tomorrow competition has recognized new residential lighting products that are both energy efficient and exceptional. The design competition looks to leap over market barriers that inhibit the adoption and use of energy efficient residential lighting products. By emphasizing beautiful and highly functional products that appeal to savvy, style-conscious buyers, Lighting for Tomorrow creates a sense of well-being in the home. Along with the Consortium for Energy Efficiency, Lighting for Tomorrow is sponsored by the American Lighting Association (ALA) and Underwriters Laboratories (UL), as well as over a dozen energy efficiency and utility programs across the US and Canada.
