This document provides an overview of the CFL Experience Toolkit, which is designed to guide users through the process of designing, financing, and implementing compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) programs in developing countries. It describes the main sections and navigation tools of the toolkit. The toolkit contains (1) a step-by-step guide to walk through each phase of a CFL program, (2) case studies of existing CFL programs, and (3) a knowledge center with technical specifications, templates, and other resources. The goal is to educate users on best practices and provide resources to help plan and execute their own CFL programs.

2. This toolkit is intended to provide information on compact fluorescent lamp (CFL) program design, program financing and
program implementation for developing countries looking to implement similar programs. It is designed with two main
functions. First to walk users through the phases of a CFL program, explaining each step and directing users to more
detailed information that can be used to take action on each step. Second, it is intended to be a knowledge center where
users can find case studies, technical specifications, templates and links. Below is list of all the components of the site, next
we will describe each element in detail.
