With the aim of further optimisation in workflow and efficient standardisations as well as a well-defined focus on excellent performance of DALI based systems, the AG DALI confirmed a stronger organisational structure and a new wording.

Controllable lighting systems are the key for energy saving in building and outdoor lighting installations with the additional benefit of increased comfort and safety. One of the best known solutions is Digital Adressable Lighting Interface (DALI) and identifies a digital interface for intelligent lighting management that is in international use across the lighting industry.

Due to the increasing demand in energy saving, lighting control systems like DALI will become much more important. With the aim of further
optimisation in workflow and efficient standardisations as well as a well-defined focus on excellent performance of DALI based systems, the AG DALI confirmed a stronger organisational structure and a new wording. On 23 November 2012, the extraordinary general assembly stated new rules for the new working party DALI. The working party will act under the statutes of the German Electrical and Electronic Manufacturers’ Association ZVEI based in Frankfurt am Main.

The assembly elected a new board. Peter van der Kolk, HELVAR OY AB, has been confirmed in his position as chairman of DALI.

Further board members are:

Raf Brouwers, Philips Lighting B.V., Deputy Chairman
Dr. Thomas Dreier, OSRAM AG
Karl-Heinz Fenkart, Tridonic GmbH & Co. KG
Kay Pawlik, Erco GmbH
Joachim See, Schneider Electric SA
Bernd Siebel, Insta Elektro GmbH
Michael Spall, BAG electronics GmbH
Norbert Wittig, Panasonic Electric Works Vossloh-Schwabe GmbH

Two working groups will be established: Marketing/Promotion and Technical/Logo Licence. Standardisation is done by IEC committees.
