City Plans to Replace Street Lights with LED Lamps

Honolulu Mayor Kirk Caldwell is proposing changing all of the city's streetlights with light-emitting diode (LED) lamps over the next few years.  This move would cut the electricity consumption for the streetlight by half, saving the city approximately $3 million in energy cost per year.  Furthermore, LED lights will last longer than traditional lights and shine brighter, helping to reduce crime and the number of vehicular accidents across Oahu.  The city is now requesting for bids from companies to install the LED lamps.
