- Philips Joins Alliance to Save Energy in Call for Public Policies on Energy-Efficient Lighting
- The Alliance to Save Energy, Philips Lighting North America and other energy-efficiency advocates will join Sen. Mark Pryor (D-Ark.) in a call for public policies that will transform the U.S. marketplace to energy-efficient lighting products by 2016.
The Philips-led Lighting Efficiency Coalition is seeking adoption of public policies to accelerate the use of existing energy-efficient lighting products.
Among the products to be promoted in this effort are compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs), improved energy-saving halogen lamps, and light-emitting diodes (LEDs) so the nation can gain significant economic, environmental, and energy-security benefits.
On March 14, the following speakers will make a call for this change in Washington, D.C.:
- Sen. Mark Pryor (D-Ark.), Chair of the Alliance to Save Energy
- Brian Dundon, Vice Chairman Philips Lighting
- Jim Rogers, CEO, Duke Energy Co-Chair, Alliance to Save Energy Board of Directors and Co-Chairman, Lighting Efficiency Coalition
The Alliance to Save Energy is a coalition of prominent business, government, environmental, and consumer leaders who promote the efficient and clean use of energy worldwide to benefit consumers, the environment, economy, and national security.
