The purpose is to completely remove the portable luminaires appliance type from the Appliance Efficiency Regulations as the existing performance standards have become redundant. The original energy saving goals of the performance standards are now accomplished though more recent regulations regarding other lighting products ("state-regulated LED and small diameter directional lamps" and "general service lamps"). The lighting market has transformed in such a way that all lighting products installed in portable luminaires being sold or offered for sale in California are energy efficient even without the portable luminaires regulations in place.
Environment related objective
To promote energy conservation by removing redundancies in efficiency regulations.
