The DLC Summit 2026, taking place on October 26-27 in Los Angeles, is an opportunity for professionals who design, promote, install, incentivize and specify lighting controls to network, learn and collaborate on ways to break down the barriers implementing and integrating lighting controls in facilities of all sizes.
With the theme “Next Gen Lighting: Controls, Integration, and the Environment, the Summit prepares attendees for the ever- changing commercial lighting market — advanced controls, integrated building systems, and new program models are reshaping how utilities, manufacturers, and efficiency leaders approach lighting savings.
Co-hosted by the Los Angeles Department of Water & Power, the DLC Summit 2026 is designed to move the industry from conversation to action. Across two days of panels, small-group discussions, and networking, attendees will dig into what’s working now, what barriers remain, and how lighting can keep delivering energy savings, decarbonization, and sustainability.
