Recently, Rutland village has benefited a lot from LEDs.
Market Overton Parish Council in Rutland reported the savings after LED bulbs were installed, replacing the usual sodium system.
According to Deputy chairman, Andrew Stewart , the parish council's average monthly energy bill had gone down from about £80 to about £15 since the changes. Maintenance costs are also expected to be around 90% cheaper than in previous years.
What’s more, 80% of their street lamps have been fitted with time switches to turn the lights off between the hours of midnight and 0530 GMT.
The new system is now attracting interest from neighbouring villages.
