UK Warrington Borough Council and Liverpool City Convert Streetlights to LED

The Warrington Borough Council and Liverpool City in UK have announced plans of upgrading current streetlights to LEDs respectively, according to various UK media reports.

Liverpool City will be investing GRB 7 million (US $) to initially transform the city’s 1,038 streetlights spawning across 158 streets in Fazakerley to LEDs, according to a BBC report. The city’s remaining 22,500 streetlights installed in 3,214 streets will be upgraded over the next two years.

The latest LED upgrade is projected to help the city reduce 1,400 tonnes of carbon emissions, and cut GRB 2.7 million in maintenance, a Lighting report quoted Mayor Joe Anderson saying. The council currently spends GRB 2.6 million per year on energy costs resulting from running its 57,000 streetlights and illuminated signs and bollards across the city.

Another nearby city council Warrington is planning to invest GRB 25 million to replace 18,000 streetlights over a three year period. The city has a total of 27,000 streetlights, and spends about GRB 1.4 million per year on energy bills, which contribute to 17 percent of total carbon emissions. More than 60 percent of the city’s streetlights have been installed for 25 years or longer. 

The city’s streetlights will be replaced with white fluorescent PL and Mini Luma LED lanterns from Philips.
