Hull City to Install 32K LED Streetlights and Save US $1.4M Every Year

Hull City, a city in the East Riding of Yorkshire, will start to replace its 32,000 conventional streetlights with LEDs, expected to save more than GBP 1 million (US $1.44 million) per year.

Among the city’s 42,000 streetlights only 9,000 of them are low wattage.

Therefore, the Hull City Council plans to switch the rest of the streetlights to energy- efficient LED ones.

Councilor Martin Mancey, portfolio holder for energy, stated that the authority is making a GBP 7 million loan for the expense of the LED streetlights and expect these novel technology to pay back in the long run.

Currently, the city spends an annually GBP 1.6 million on streetlights. According to the city’s calculation, the LED streetlights conversion will bring an annually GBP 865,000.

The estimated lifetime of LED streetlights is approximately 20 years, and Mancey explained how this could even save more for the city in the long run.

With existing streetlights which last only 6 to 8 years, the LED streetlights will immediately save an annual GBP 200,000, which makes the total GBP 1 million.

This figure implies that the city will be able to save up to GBP 21 million in the following 20 years.

The LED streetlights will be installed over a two- year period.
