A British Town Saves £1 Million a Year after Replacing with LED Street Lamps
2019-3-27

It is reported that Wigan, a town in northwest England, completed a streetlamp replacement program last year. More than 36,500 LED lights were installed in the road network, saving the town government 1 million pounds (about RMB 8.85 million) per year, significantly reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint.

Moreover, these LED lamps have many other advantages over conventional sodium street lamps.

 LEDs have a longer life span, less maintenance requirements, and a nearly 60% reduction in energy consumption.

The LED lamps generate little heat, contain no hazardous substances, and do not need bulb replacement. They can be controlled by a central computer system to provide bright and high-quality lighting for streets.

 Carl Sweeney, cabinet member of environment of Wigan, said, “The implementation of the street lighting project is the key to reforms and will ultimately have a positive impact on the environment of our next generation .”

“Some places keep street lamps off to save money, but we know that this is not what our residents want. Street lamps can make people feel safer in the community and on the road.”

According to the financial data of the local government, between April and December 2018, the Wigan town government spent £1.8 million (about RMB 15.93 million) on the streetlamp project.
