An optimization model for luminous efficacy of a spectrally tunable light‐emitting diode (LED) daylight simulator under constraint of metamerism index was developed. It was first reported that the optimal spectrally tunable LED daylight simulator of AA grade for D50, D55, D65, and D75 standard illuminants could consist of two quantum dot‐integrated LEDs (QDLEDs) with the ultraviolet chip and two other QDLEDs with the blue chip. The optimized spectral parameters of each QDLED, as well as photometric and colorimetric performances of D50, D55, D65, and D75 daylight simulators, were obtained by maximizing luminous efficacy under the metamerism index for both a visible and ultraviolet range less than 0.25. The limit luminous efficacies of four daylight simulators using four QDLEDs under the ideal case will reach 181 lm/W to 205 lm/luminous efficacies with a radiant efficiency of both the ultraviolet and blue chips of 60%, as well as a quantum efficiency of a quantum dots layer of 90%, will reach 100 lm/W to 112 lm/W.
