OBJECTIVE
IMPACT
MediumLighting usually accounts for up to 15% of energy and LEDs can result in up to 83% improvement in energy efficiency. Total abatement potential will depend on lights remaining to swap over and hours of use.
Description
Council will continue to transition the lighting in our buildings and facilities to LED, prioritising our highest energy consuming buildings and facilities.
LED stands for light emitting diode. LED lighting products produce light up to 90% more efficiently than incandescent light bulbs.
Council's Assets & Property team undertake an on-going LED lighting upgrade program. Many Council buildings, facilities and public lighting have received LED upgrades to date.
