New York To Test LED Street Lamps
The Big Apple has come a long way since those nasty days of the 1970’s and 1980’s now there are car free zones and the plastic bag tax, but one thing that could be significant is the testing of new LED street light, if this is successful then the cities thirty thousand street could be replaced by them.
These lights will cut the cities power usage by around thirty per cent; these savings would mean that the city would see a return on their investment within two to three years. Should these lights get the go ahead then is possible that other lighting could be applied to the units, such as traffic and crossing control.
