Time to Submit Your Entry for a 2017 IES Illumination Award

Time to Submit Your Entry for a 2017 IES Illumination Award

January 6, 2016

Submissions are now being accepted for the IES’ 2017 Illumination Awards program. Deadline: February 17.

For this year’s awards, IES has made improvements to the submissions process. Changes include a new portal that simplifies uploading and improves processing reliability and speed, providing a more robust framework to administer and support the awards program, benefitting all users.

Also new:

  • a 6-week submission period, which began January 1. Your award file can be “saved” online so you can make changes before sending
  • new score sheets that allow more flexibility to describe the project complexity and solution. Scoring for judges is more unified with regards to intent and applicability of point levels; Energy and Budget requirements have been moved to the description of complexity so that you can address it if it was important to your project, or not address if it was not important.

The submissions fee is US$125 per entry. Awards will be presented at the IES annual conference in Portland Oregon, August 10-12.
