PURPOSE AND MISSION FACT SHEETS USEFUL LINKS
The Next Generation Lighting Industry Alliance (NGLIA) was formed in 2003 to foster industry-government partnership to accelerate the technical foundation, and ultimate commercialization, of solid state lighting systems.

The Alliance was designated in 2005 as the “industry partner” by the U.S. Department of Energy for its Solid State Lighting (SSL) program. The SSL Program is being undertaken to research, develop, and conduct demonstration activities on advanced solid state white lighting technologies based on inorganic and organic light emitting diodes (LEDs and OLEDs).

Statement of Activity and Operation
The physical behaviors exhibited by solid state materials are substantially different from traditional lighting technologies. NGLIA promotes the understanding, implementation, and adoption of semiconductor light sources in specialty and general lighting systems. The industry will continue to evaluate new technologies and adopt those that fall within the category of solid state lighting. More
