    • Abstract:
      New U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) standards require that all General Service Fluorescent Lamps (GSFL) manufactured after Jan. 26, 2018 meet increased efficacy standards, or lumens per watt, to encourage the adoption of high-efficiency lighting products. Fluorescent lamps with higher wattages, which require more energy to operate, will have greater difficulty meeting the new requirements. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
