Become a DLC Member
DLC membership connects utilities and energy efficiency program administrators across the U.S. and Canada who rely on DLC-listed products in their C&I incentive programs. Members gain access to data, tools, and a peer network that help design stronger programs, accelerate savings, and support decarbonization goals.
Data.
Gain full access to DLC Qualified Products Lists (QPLs), detailed data downloads, and advanced evaluation tools that help you save time, reduce program costs, and strengthen your commercial lighting initiatives.
Expertise.
Connect directly with DLC technical staff for guidance on LED lighting, horticultural lighting, networked lighting controls, and emerging technologies. Members receive priority support and communication access.
Resources.
Unlock exclusive member-only reports, market research, templates, whitepapers, and communication toolkits designed to help you promote and implement efficient lighting programs.
Engagement.
Participate in DLC committees and working groups that shape new requirements, guide strategic planning, and influence the direction of lighting and controls policy across the industry.
Membership is open to utilities, energy efficiency programs, government agencies, and related organizations that reference DLC-listed products in their programs. Joining is straightforward: we work with your team to confirm eligibility, dues, and how to onboard staff into DLC resources.
