Follow on Google News | Outdoor Lighting: LED traffic lights continues to gain tractionMunicipalities in Indiana, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Nebraska all receive new funding for LED traffic light and street light upgrades. Spark’s LED lamp will be very suitable for this project.
By: ALICE WU The momentum behind LED-based solid-state- Indianapolis, Indiana hopes to leverage LEDs to shave $250,000 in annual electrical cost from the $604,666 it now spends to power traffic signals. The City's Office of Sustainability received just over $8 million in Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grants (EECBGs) from the US Department of Energy (DOE), and will spend $1 million of those funds to upgrade traffic signals at more than 500 intersections. "The installation of brighter, energy-efficient traffic signals allows us to become a more sustainable city and enhance motorist safety, while cutting costs at the same time," said Indianapolis Mayor Greg Ballard. “Enhancing public safety and quality of life in our neighborhoods have always been top priorities.” The City notes that the LED signals use a tenth of the power of incandescent lights. The upgrade is one of many projects being conducted under the Mayor's SustainIndy initiative. Other projects include solar- and wind-powered street lights. In the Scranton, Pennsylvania area, the State Department of Transportation is using $353,028 in federal funding to install LED traffic lights according to the Scranton Times Tribune. The project will include upgrades at 60 intersections in the Scranton area. # # # Spark is proud of LED Street Light. Most street lights all use high brightness USA Cree LEDs with higher luminous efficiency, lower power consumption, and more excellent heat dissipation.Save energy 70%.Pass CE/RoHS/UL.Details at http://www.spark- End
