Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

While we routinely specify only Energy Star fixtures, in one of our new buildings under construction, an ADA compliant fixture was specified by the architect that was only rated Energy Star within the past two months and another is not in a category that Energy Star rates- hence the 99% Energy Star rather than 100%
