Yet when an optical surface material is faceted so that it couples the light control from specularity with the minimum light loss that comes with high reflectivity, such that fewer lamps can still achieve the necessary footcandles, then the energy savings are compelling.
Reflections on reflectors: interviews and research by Eneref Institute show that better performing reflectors are worth striving for, even with the engineering and aesthetic challenges for the designer, price-point hurdles for the marketer and ROI qualms for the facility owner
It was also discovered that a conical depression on the optical surface dramatically improved the repeatability.

Any highly polished optical surface without some kind of reflection reducing coating will mean a loss of light as much as 5 percent by reflection reducing coating will mean a loss of light as much as 5 percent by reflection at each surface in the scope where light either enters or exits the polished glass surface.
