The city council of San Carlos, California, recently approved the installation of the city’s first major installation of LED streetlights. The initiative is funded by an award from the US Department of Energy’s Energy Efficiency and Conservation Block Grant (EECBG) program and is included in the capital project budget. The federal award was $124,092 and is locally administered by the California Energy Commission (CEC). The project will retrofit 192 existing high pressure sodium (HPS) streetlights with LED fixtures manufactured by BetaLED, a division of Ruud Lighting, of Racine, Wisconsin.
