Portuguese Cities Expand Installation of LUXEON LED based Street Lights


The implementation of efficient, attractive LED street lighting in Portugal has an overview pace over the summer as EnergiaViva has completed installations of the new Urban LED street light in ten towns and cities. Installation work in a further 20 Portuguese municipalities is expected to have been completed this fall .

The UrbanLED luminaires were introduced in April 2009, when they were installed on a street in the Portuguese town of Pombal. The solution, which uses LUXEON Rebel power LEDs from Philips Lumileds , provide an attractive combination of power efficiency, CRI, uniform light distribution and Low maintenance and repair costs.

These qualities have seen it quickly gain favor with other municipalities in Portugal. During the summer, UrbanLED street lights have been installed on streets in the towns of Alcochete, Moita, Barreiro, Arraiolos, Pombal, Santa Maria de Feira Vale de Cambra, Estarreja, Coimbra and Torres Vedras.

The installations have been carried out by EnergiaViva and the installations are as popular with residents as with municipality officials. The white light from the UrbanLED transforms areas that were previously a dark yellowish color from the high-pressure sodium lamps that they replace.

The forecast implementation of UrbanLED in towns and cities around Portugal is also proof of the compelling financial case that this high-efficiency, low-maintenance street lighting solution offers.

The accelerating roll-out of LED street lighting means that high-pressure sodium lamps could begin to be eliminated from Portuguese streets.
