  • Abstract
    Biggest challenges for lighting in the future is regulatory influences such as promotion of “Green” lighting, limiting light pollution (Dark Sky Rule), Carbon Foot Print, etc. This paper is going to cover some of these regulatory terms´ definition, history, how they affect the lighting design and life cycle costs of different type of lighting. Many a times these regulatory constraints are not only incomplete but they conflict among themselves.
