Decorative lighting upgrade options

In order to improve the reliability of street lighting and reduce energy costs to Council, we are planning to upgrade street lights with energy efficient LED’s.

Our decorative style of street lighting across the region is inefficient, the light distribution can be obtrusive and they are nearing their end of life.

An option for replacing existing “decorative” style light using a “standard” LED Street light and cross arm (pictured here) has been approved for use by SA Power Networks.

We believe the standard street light has greater benefit over the decorative style of lights in achieving;

  • Higher reduction in energy consumption and associated costs
  • Reduction in capital cost
  • Reduction in tariff costs
  • Greater uniformity of light across and along the street
  • Better colour rendering and visibility
  • Less depreciation of the light output over time
  • Reduced glare and provides significantly less light spill into private property.

Have Your Say

Over the next 6 months we are seeking to transition decorative street lights to a standard style of street light and we're keen to hear your thoughts on the street lighting changeover.To provide feedback just click on the FEEDBACK tab below.
