Why Choose LED Lighting for Your Community

LED Municipal Lighting

Whether you’re on a municipal committee or you’re a policy person searching for ways to beautify your business or home, consider changing to a green outdoor lighting solution. LEDs are simple to operate and cost-effective. They can reduce your maintenance fees, improve energy usage, create a safer environment, and even lead to a more communal feeling.

Let’s unpack these concepts in more detail.

1. Save energy and lower costs – in the short term AND long term.

Compared to traditional streetlights, you might save as much as 60% (or more), depending on incidental factors. Plus, the maintenance costs will be much lower than you’re used to paying. You can then reinvest the savings into other city or local beautification projects.

2. Get your city working.

Some LED lighting experts believe that over 220 jobs are created for every 100,000 LED units installed. That doesn’t even account for local installer jobs. And these are not just “job” jobs, either. When people feel a sense of purpose about their work, they tend to do better work and experience more vitality and joy. LED lighting installation is an act of civic service, so people can feel good about what they’re doing.

3. Create a greater feeling of safety in your community.

Safer streets not only mean happier citizens but also more business for local shops and services. LED lights improve visibility and rendition of colors, and they’re also gentle on the eyes. That may not seem like “that much” of a big deal. But subtle improvements in the aesthetics of a sidewalk or walkway can lead to pretty impressive aggregate effects.

4. Enjoy flexible and adaptive implementation.

Rather than tearing down your current mounting systems, you can easily retrofit your LED solution onto existing structures to save money and speed up the process.

5. Create a greener community.

LED lighting is more environmentally-friendly; LEDs create fewer greenhouse gas emissions.
