CLASP – Who we are and Mission • Who we are: o USA non-profit established 1999 o Worked in over 50 countries / economies o 40+ people around the globe o Dedicated programmes in Africa, India and Europe (since 2009) • Mission: o “CLASP improves the energy and environmental performance of the appliances & equipment we use every day, accelerating our transition to a more sustainable world. ” 2

Lighting Electricity Use Globally • Lighting consumed 15 % of the total electricity consumption in 2015 or 2940 TWh • Electricity to run the lights contributed 1. 6 Gt of CO 2 emissions • > 1, 0 billion people lack electrical lighting – future demand • A disruptive technology (LED) has entered the market – changes are coming 3 3

Electricity enables us to do things…. • Cold beer • Cool air • Bright lights • Great movies • Clean clothes • Quality of life is really about services, not electricity • Energy-efficiency enables you to enjoy the same services while using less electricity – any policy-makers hold the key 4

Efficiency is a “Negawatt” Power Station • Freeing-up existing capacity is the same as building new capacity • “Negawatts” of free capacity are cheaper and faster than building new capacity, and have zero running costs Traditional Power Station – “Megawatts” Virtual Power Station – “Negawatts” 5

Benefits of market transformation to more efficient products • Household savings - reduce household energy bills (but still enjoy the same services!); • Grid reliability – reduce electricity shortages (brown-outs / black-outs); reduces peak power demand • Save national investment – reduce capital and loans tied up in power stations and grid upgrades; slows new demand growth • Market protection - avoid becoming dumpingground for technologies banned elsewhere • Energy imports – reduce capital out-flow for fuel purchases / electricity imports; strengthen national energy security • Climate change – develop on a ‘soft energy path’, avoid becoming a high CO 2 emission country 6

7 Lighting in all end-use sectors is shifting to LED • All end-use sectors �Residential - household lighting, indoor & outdoor �Commercial – hallway, offices, meeting rooms, architectural, retail / shop, parking, area… �Industrial – high-bay, process �Municipal / Outdoor – street lighting, walkway, sports stadium… 7

Global trend in policy-making to phase-out inefficient lighting • European phased out mains-voltage halogen spot lights in September 2016 and non-directional halogen lamps in September 2018 • UN Environment working with >10 countries on phase-out 8 8

9 Start with Non-Directional Household Lamps • High energy user, primarily a domestic sector product • Good efficiency range (“efficacy” = lumens light per Watt power) • Define in a technology-neutral way, to cover all these technologies – as in Europe, 244/2009 • Use different ‘tiers’ to advance the market when you are ready • When regulating, consider quality requirements – light quality and colour, lifetime, flicker, power quality, etc. 9
