Hyderabad Plans for Switch to LED Streetlights before Ugadi
Hyderabad . The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) in India intends to roll out a massive streetlight replacement project ahead of the annual holiday Ugadi, which takes place on March 29 this year, reported The Hans India.
A total of 413,029 high-pressure sodium vapor (HPSV) streetlights will be replaced with LEDs before March throughout the capital of Southern India’s Telangana state. The citywide streetlight upgrade initiative will save GHMC nearly INR 1 billion (US $ 1.47 million) per year.
The city will be conducting a thorough study in the next 15 days ahead of the initiation of the LED project. Officials noted the streetlights will have different capacities including 20W, 50W, 70W and 120W to be installed, depending on the width of the road.
