Cities and public works departments face an ongoing effort to serve the
public with better lighting and to reduce their carbon footprints and energy
costs. LED street light installations are being tested around North America and
are demonstrating their ability to improve results for both the operators of
street lights and the people who use them. Speakers will explain LED
technologies currently availble for city/public use and present case studies on
street lighting and traffic lighting pilot programs currently underway in North
America.
After this program, participants will better be able to:
- Recognize light emitting diode technologies and their applications
- Realize energy saving potentials from alternative lighting technologies
- Identify long term financial saving associated with LED technology
- Recognize potential pitfalls for the process and plan how to avoid them
