“We’re committed to changing the way people view and use energy,
and are working hard to continue to reduce the carbon footprint of
homes and buildings across the UK,” said Richard Scott, e.on’s head
of marketing for sustainable energy solutions.
“This is an example of how, through technological advancement,
the CO2 emissions from street lighting could be halved – delivering
clear benefits for our environment and cost savings for our
business customers.”
The high-powered LED street lights, which reduce carbon
emissions by up to 50 percent and cut energy consumption by around
25 percent, also boast an eightfold increase in the lifetime of the
bulbs.
An analysis of e.on’s joint venture with Lombard can be
