Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Descripton of Business	*Description of Business* We are focused on acquiring and growing specialized LED lighting companies for the architecture and interior design markets for both commercial and residential applications. Our lighting products include both conventional fixtures and advanced solid-state technology that can integrate with digital controls and day-lighting to create energy efficiencies and a better visual environment. Our objective is to grow, innovate, and fully capture the rapidly growing lighting market opportunities associated with solid state lighting. Énergie was founded in 2001 and is engaged in the import and sale of specialized interior lighting solutions to the architecture and interior design markets in North America. Our headquarters is located in Wheat Ridge, Colorado, and we also maintain a production and assembly facility in Zeeland, Michigan.
Basis of Presentation	*Basis of Presentation* The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2015, has been derived from audited financial statements. The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited financial statements and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial statements. In the opinion of management, such unaudited information includes all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of this interim information. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Operating results and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results that can be expected for the entire year. The information included in this report should be read in conjunction with our audited financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015.
Significant Accounting Policies	*Significant Accounting Policies* In accordance with the FASB’s issuance of ASU No. 2015-03, Interest-Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30), Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs (ASU 2015-03) and ASU No. 2015-15, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Presentation and Subsequent Measurement of Debt Issuance Costs Associated with Line-of-Credit Arrangements—Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to Staff Announcement at June 18, 2015 EITF Meeting (SEC Update) (ASU 2015-15), we have changed our presentation of debt issuance costs. Consistent with the application of ASU 2015-03 and 2015-15, we now present debt issuance costs as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt rather than as an asset on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The impact of this change on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2016, was a decrease of total assets and a decrease of debt and total liabilities of $155,029. The impact of this change on the condensed consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 was a decrease of total assets and a decrease of debt and total liabilities of $101,358. The change had no impact on shareholders’ equity (deficit) or net loss in either period.
Going Concern	*Going Concern* As shown in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we had an equity deficit of $11,553,552 and a working capital deficit of $10,649,341 as of June 30, 2016, and have reported net losses of $1,599,530 and $1,331,838 for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. These factors raise substantial doubt regarding our ability to continue as a going concern. Our ability to continue as a going concern is dependent on our ability to further implement our business plan, attract additional capital and, ultimately, upon our ability to develop future profitable operations. We intend to fund our business development, acquisition endeavors and operations through equity and debt financing arrangements. However, there can be no assurance that these arrangements will be sufficient to fund our ongoing capital expenditures, working capital, and other cash requirements. The outcome of these matters cannot be predicted at this time. These matters raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might be necessary if we are unable to continue as a going concern. Additionally, current economic conditions in the United States and globally create significant challenges attaining sufficient funding. Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentations.
Reclassifications	*Reclassifications* Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation.

ASU 2016-10 amends the new revenue recognition standard that it issued jointly with the IASB in 2014. The amendments do not change the core principles of the standard, but clarify the accounting for licenses of intellectual property, as well as the identification of distinct performance obligations in a contract.

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (ASU 2016-13). ASU 2016-13 requires the immediate recognition of estimated credit losses that are expected to occur over the life of many financial assets.
