What the notification says

The notified draft Standard seeks to establish the energy-efficiency levels, expressed in terms of the electrical power density for lighting, that non-residential building lighting systems must meet, including the method for calculating that density. This is intended to ensure that these systems are designed and constructed in an energy-efficient manner by optimizing their design and using state-of-the-art technologies, such as LED lighting, without compromising the required illuminance levels.G/TBT/N/MEX/582- 2 -
