Greater Dandenong LED Streetlight Project

completed

Greater Dandenong Council replaced 5,320 old mercury vapor street lights with energy-efficient LED technology, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 1,974 tonnes annually and cutting energy consumption by 77%. The project is expected to save AU $7.43 million over 20 years through reduced energy and maintenance costs, with a payback period of approximately seven years. The new LED lights provide better lighting quality and safety, and the project supports the Australian economy by using locally made products and services.
