Philips Installs LED Streetlights in Durban

Royal Philips Electronics has installed 149 LED streetlamps in six streets around the Durban International Conference Centre (ICC).


The new street lighting is part of a joint initiative by Philips, State-owned power utility Eskom, the Department of Environmental Affairs and the eThekwini municipality, to demonstrate the significant advances being made in energy-efficient LED lighting.

The new lighting offers energy savings of 47.4 MWh a year, or 26% when compared with the older 250 W metal halide street lights they replaced, and at the same time provides superb light quality.

The LEDs provide 21 126 lumens, at a colour temperature of 5 700 k, while it is designed to last for 60 000 hours.
