Ouray, Colorado, converts all city streetlights to BetaLED fixtures


The city of Ouray, Colorado, has already seen financial benefits of converting city streetlights to LED technology. Ouray’s effort to adopt new technology was driven by the simple need to replace aging streetlights as well as the desire to replace outdated mercury vapor lighting technology. The city, in partnership with local utilities San Miguel Power and Tri-State Power, financed the conversion of 100 streetlights in commercial and residential areas. City officials chose LED streetlight fixtures manufactured by BetaLED, a division of Ruud Lighting, of Racine, Wisconsin.
