(Most electronic ballasts today do not dim，but dimming control is more easily added to electronic ballasts than magnetic ballasts). However，unlike T-8s and electronic ballasts, which are considered reliable mainstream technologies in California, controls have not yet demonstrated that they can achieve sustainable energy savings in routine practice. Controls save energy not because they make the source more efficient but because they decrease hours of operation or dim lighting as needs change or according to the availability of daylight. At this time, controls represent a very small fraction of the market. Long-term studies to document the technology’s savings are now underway. These studies will account for climatic differences and end-user acclimation，and will help determine the appropriate applications and relative cost of implementation and operation. These studies of lighting controls in buildings also provide critical real-world energy savings performance data to assist state regulatory agencies in deciding whether lighting controls should be adopted in future legislation. There is significant evidence of renewed interest in lighting controls from a number of circles: The mandating of some lighting controls in the National ASHRAE 90.1R draft building code that is currently undergoing public review. The emergence of several t
