Government Lighting Upgrade: Savings and Efficiency

The BRIGHT Act aims to modernize lighting in federal buildings by mandating the use of the most energy-efficient and cost-effective systems. This means citizens can expect reduced maintenance costs for government buildings, leading to more efficient use of taxpayer money. Additionally, the act promotes sustainability and reduced energy consumption in the public sector.
Key points
The U.S. government will procure and install only the most energy-efficient lighting systems in public buildings.
Replacing old bulbs and fixtures with new, energy-efficient ones will be standard during building maintenance.
Information on efficient lighting will be made available to state, local, and tribal entities, potentially aiding savings at lower administrative levels.
