Document Details:

Access to public lighting is an important element of international development and LED public lighting provides additional benefits beyond those typically provided by traditional forms of lighting. Its electricity consumption is 40 to 60 percent lower, and the quality of light is generally perceived as better. As a result, ESMAP is providing resources to help clients implement LED programs. Since lighting represents 15 percent (and growing) of world’s electricity consumption, this focused support aims to catalyze the transformation of the lighting sector; thus helping reduce unnecessary lighting costs and GHG emissions.
