LED Solutions may help with reducing energy, maintenance but caution is needed with these generally high cost items. Most authorities are investigating the opportunities. 13th Annual Roads Event - Roads 2012

These systems have the potential to enable the authority to manage it lighting asset in a dynamic way, applying the principles of UEL “Right light, in the Right place, at the Right time by the Right control system” Responsible energy management has to be the future of the industry. 13th Annual Roads Event - Roads 2012

  15. Conclusion London Lighting Engineering Group is a well respected group that is seen as proactive and innovative, developing and sharing good practise for the industry. Involved and integrating into sector groups, panels and discussion that will help improve services and reduce expenditure, delivering better “Value for Money.” However we strive for greater engagement from all boroughs members. While membership attendance is improving we still struggle to engage with some of the borough engineers but this is reducing with Dave Johnson receiving an excellent response from 29 London Authorities recently 13th Annual Roads Event - Roads 2012
