DOE Solid-State Lighting Portfolio

The U.S. Department of Energy and its partners are working to accelerate advances in solid-state lighting —
a pivotal emerging technology that promises to fundamentally alter lighting in the future.

No other lighting technology offers the Department
and our nation so much potential to save energy and
enhance the quality of our building environments.


The L Prize competition challenges the lighting industry to develop high-performance solid-state lighting products to replace the common light bulb.  Learn more.
