CLTC was developed through a collaborative effort between the California Energy Commission, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the National Electrical Manufacturers Association to advance energy-efficient lighting and daylighting technologies. CLTC was established in 2003 at the University of California, Davis.

The CLTC facility includes full-scale laboratories for the development and demonstration of next-generation, emerging lighting and daylighting, building automation, plug load, and electric vehicle supply equipment technologies. Comprehensive in-house and outreach training programs are being developed in cooperation with industry and utility groups to complement demonstration and application labs.

As a demonstration and education facility, CLTC helps to establish key market connections by providing practitioners the hands-on opportunity to learn about energy-efficient lighting technologies and lighting design approaches. Furthermore, CLTC coordinates outreach and support efforts with existing utility-based energy centers, offering tours, demonstration materials, and technical assistance in the adoption of emerging technologies.
