LIT Act of 2025

The "Liberating Incandescent Technology Act of 2025" or "LIT Act of 2025" aims to significantly modify federal energy conservation policy regarding lighting. It achieves this by amending the Energy Policy and Conservation Act to remove specific provisions that establish and regulate energy conservation standards for general service lamps. This includes striking the relevant paragraph defining these lamps as covered products and eliminating the subsection that sets their energy conservation standards.

Furthermore, the bill explicitly terminates three recent Department of Energy rules that pertain to energy conservation standards and definitions for general service lamps, published in 2022 and 2024. These actions collectively seek to repeal federal mandates concerning the energy efficiency of common light bulbs, potentially allowing for the continued production and sale of less efficient lighting technologies.
