City lighting upgrade program saves money
enhances public
safety
A number of public parking lots and City facilities
have had their existing lighting upgraded to Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights.
Upgrades were made to the North Nanaimo, South Nanaimo and Departure Bay Gateway
Signs; City Park Operations Yard; Beban Park and Nanaimo Aquatic Centre lobby
areas; Nanaimo Aquatic Centre leisure pool; Cavan Street and Brechin Boat Ramp
parking lots and the Bastion parkade.
The new LED lights provide
significantly reduced energy consumption by 50%, much longer life reducing maintenance
costs and high quality light.
The City of Nanaimo receives incentives
from BC Hydro for projects related to the Strategic Energy Management
Program.
"LED lighting is a more efficient and
effective way to light public spaces. The bulbs last longer, use less
electricity and are brighter which provide an higher degree of public
safety." - Scott Pamminger City of Nanaimo
