A Web-based entry submittal process has been developed to replace the former hard-copy process. Online entries must be received by 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on January 7, 2013. To submit a project, applicants should go to the GE Edison Award website for full details.

The competition is open to professional designers, architects, engineers and consultants for projects completed during the 2012 calendar year. Online entries are judged on the following criteria: functional excellence; architectural compatibility; effective use of state-of-the-art lighting products and techniques; appropriate color, form and texture revelation; energy efficiency and cost effectiveness.

Projects scoring the highest number of points will qualify to receive either Awards of Merit or Awards of Excellence. The GE Edison Award Winner is selected from among the Awards of Excellence.

In addition to these distinctions, an Award for Residential Lighting Design is presented to the project that best exemplifies excellence in lighting design within a residential application, using the same criteria as the other award categories. For this category, judges are looking for designs with innovative application(s) of light and the creative integration of lighting layers and controls.
