More than 170 attendees joined DOE and top lighting and IoT experts to examine key barriers and issues impacting development of connected lighting systems. For those new to connected lighting, two pre-workshop introductory sessions were held on communications and cybersecurity fundamentals.

The workshop expanded on key discussions held at the inaugural Connected Lighting Systems Meeting held in November 2015. Panel topics included configuration complexity, test beds, energy reporting, interoperability, and leading-edge indoor and outdoor installations. Attendees noted the "educational and eye-opening” sessions," "open conversation about the state of the industry,” and "great networking opportunity." Additional feedback gleaned will guide DOE and workshop planning over the next year.
