LEDs and other mercury-free lamps can be included in your calculations if they are as efficient as comparable mercury-containing lamps. You can confirm this by looking at the lumens per watt for both lamps (and remember, more lumens per watt is more efficient). For documentation purposes, checking the box on the credit form should be sufficient to demonstrate that this requirement is met.

Question
<p>How should I account for LED purchases? Do I have to show that the LEDs are as energy efficient as similar mercury-containing lamps?</p>
