Recommendation

Transforming old technology street lighting to energy-efficient LED fixtures is catching on in cities around the world due to the possibilities of cost savings, enhanced safety and green potential. A pilot project recently completed in Indonesia proves that despite challenges like high up-front cost, political issues and lack of local technical knowledge, LED technology can provide significant benefits to an entire population. getAbstract recommends this Asian Development Bank report to people interested in learning more about how LEDs are lighting up cities around the world and about the future of green lighting in affluent and developing countries alike.

Take-Aways

  • Lighting streets and public areas is critical but can be expensive.
  • Most urban lighting systems in Indonesia are inefficient and poorly maintained.
