132,000 street lights in Montreal, Canada will be transformed into LED street lights
It is reported that the Montreal Municipal Government of Canada will make a decision on the replacement of the light source of its 132,000 street lamps with LED products.
The City of Montreal has plans to replace the current incandescent bulbs with cheaper, more energy-efficient LED lighting products (4000K-based). However, citizens of the city are opposed to it, considering the possible health problems of high color temperature. Many people like Toronto and Chicago 3000K light source products.
The mayor of Montreal said that although the city government has yet to make a decision, there are now strong calls to drop the 4,000K. It is reported that once the color temperature-based product is determined, the city of Montreal may launch a large-scale project tender.
Singapore plans to replace national street lights with LEDs by 2022
The Singapore Land Transport Authority announced that it plans to replace the island's street lights with more energy-efficient LED street lights by 2022, and use a new remote monitoring system to switch street lights on and off according to weather conditions.
Singapore authorities have launched two pilot programs in the past to test high-power and normal-power LED street lights in some areas. Since 2013, the street lights in some areas have been changed to LED street lights, and about 4,000 street lights have been installed with LED tubes so far.
The Singapore government's streetlight replacement plan is being carried out in three phases: Phase 1, which will cover 500 roads with low traffic flow and located in residential areas, is scheduled to be completed by 2018. The second phase, which is concentrated in the central region, is expected to be completed by 2019. The third stage, the replacement of streetlights on the remaining roads, is expected to be completed by 2022.
The Ukrainian government wants to invest 84.8 billion soums in the renovation of urban street lights
According to the Ministry of Finance of Uzbekistan, in order to reduce energy consumption, introduce advanced energy-saving technologies, and optimize lighting systems, the Uzbek government plans to allocate 84.8 billion soums (about 28.3 million U.S. dollars at the official Uzbek exchange rate) for upgrading and transformation in the three years from 2017 to 2019.
