The article discusses the results of a survey of the light environment parameters in preschool educational institutions in Russia. Improving the light environment means, on the one hand, maintaining the quality of lighting, and on the other hand, improving energy efficiency and thereby reducing the financial burden. The first step in improving energy efficiency can be called an energy audit of educational institutions and the development of economically viable measures to save energy. The energy efficiency indicator was put in the first place, and to some extent the quality indicators of lighting were forgotten (for example, such as color rendition, color temperature, uniformity of illumination and etc). During the survey of the light environment, we made disappointing conclusions about the inconsistency with the parameters of regulatory documents. The lack of visible results of the implementation of energy-based solutions makes the kindergarten’s management adhere to standard solutions for improving efficiency and not worrying about the quality of lighting. It is necessary to comprehensively consider the issues of improving the light environment and take into account not only the energy efficiency, but also the quality indicators of lighting systems. In turn, the number of indicators of energy efficiency of buildings must be expanded.
