Jason joins us from the DLC. What is the DLC? In Jason’s words, the Design Lights Consortium is “a bridge between the lighting world and the energy efficiency world.” The LED revolution for energy savings is pretty much over, so what’s the next step? Lighting controls, naturally. The DLC just published an impact report on the use of LED’s over the last 10 years. Jason wants you to know that he misquoted the impact number as one hundred megawatt hours, when it is actually more like ONE THOUSAND TERAWATT hours. Imagine how much more we can save by adding lighting controls! Jason is a Technical Manager at the DLC with 25 years of lighting industry experience, most recently as director of lighting at a sales agency focused on the distributor and contractor markets. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Theatrical Lighting from the University of North Carolina School of the Arts and a Master of Fine Arts in Architectural Lighting from Parsons The New School for Design, Jason spent 20 years as an architectural and theatrical lighting designer in New York City, focusing on lighting controls. He is Lighting Certified and a member of the IES Chicago chapter.
