One year into the program, the Chicago Smart Lighting Project has reached all 50 Chicago Wards with new, energy efficient and reliable streetlights.
The smart LED streetlights consume 50-75 percent less electricity than existing High-Pressure Sodium lights, generating significant cost savings. LED fixtures also last 2-3 times longer than HPS lights.
By modernizing our city’s streetlights we are improving nighttime visibility, creating new jobs and saving taxpayers more than $100 million over the next decade.
