Project Description:

As part of the overall pilot, the Halifax Regional Municipality has undertaken a pilot installation of 285 street light with LED Roadway Lighting Ltd’s SatelliteTM Series LED street light. LED Roadway Lighting conducted street lighting layouts and fixture selection for the city to ensure the new LED lights continued to maintain the city’s street lighting guidelines for public safety (Illuminating Engineering Society Recommended Practice - IES RP-8-00).

The above 'before' and 'after' pictures were taken on Robie Street, between Quinpool Road and Jubilee Road.

Results

  • The SatelliteTM Series LED street lights provide an average of 60% energy savings.
  • In the majority of installations the LED lights increased light levels on the roadways.
  • IES RP-8-00 was maintained in all installations.
