(2) to receive a second level or higher level certification using the NGBS; and
(b)
(1) to achieve at least 500 kilowatt hour (kWh) annual electrical savings per dwelling unit, by installing equipment, lighting and household appliances meeting or exceeding the following minimum efficiency standards and which exceed applicable minimum efficiency standards prescribed in 10 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) part 430, based upon inclusion of one or more of the following:
(i) installed CFLs and other lighting fixtures and lamps in high usage areas, including primary living spaces, finished basements, walk-in closets, and outdoor areas, but excluding non-walk-in closets and unfinished basements, and has installed only CFLs and lighting fixtures that meet the minimum efficacy levels set forth in Table 1, parts A, B, and C determined in accordance with the test procedures set forth in Table 1 of this section; such CFLs and lighting fixtures shall be credited with the following kWh savings: screwbased CFL, 35 kWh each; pin-based or fixture-based CFL, 50 kWh each; and
