Energy Efficient Street Lighting System in ULBs of Telangana

Dear readers,

Happy reading!!

I am pleased to present the Nineteenth issue of Urban

Bytes. In this edition, the featured article focuses on LED

based Energy Efficient Street Lighting system

implemented in 72 ULBs in partnership with EESL

The newsmaker section covers the visit of the senior

officers from All India/ central and Defence services to

Hyderabad as part of the 43rd Advanced Professional

Programme in Public Administration and the inauguration

of the Foot Over Bridge at Siddipet Municipality by the Sri.

Harish Rao, Hon'ble Minister for Major Irrigation, Govt of

Telangana

The events section highlights the meeting held under the

chairmanship of Sri. Navin Mital IAS, Secretary MA&UD

Department with all urban department officials on the first

decade document. And also, the Orientation program to all

the ULBs on Swachh Sarvekshan 2018

I welcome your suggestion, contributions and value

addition to the newsletter

Street lighting system in the urban local bodies are found inefficiently designed. As result, energy consumption for street lighting is high and municipalities spend larger portion of the budget 10-15% and also on utility grid capacity and reliability. With new energy-efficient

Lighting technologies like LEDs (light-emitting diodes) available in the market today, street lights represent one of the most cost-effective opportunities for energy savings. Switching over to Energy Efficient street lighting systems could result in 40-60% through use of energy efficient LED technologies, while also leading to a potential GHG reduction of 4 million tonnes of Co2.

Majority of the ULBs are not financially sound to make upfront investment with technical barriers and infrastructure gaps. These barriers need to be addressed to define and prepare holistic and comprehensive policy not to just retrofit the streetlights, but also to improve the overall services and infrastructure associated with the municipal street lighting. This will ensure the creation of sustainable infrastructure to help ULBs achieve improved energy performance for a longer period. Given the immense potential, several implementation models are available across the world for achieving EE in street lighting projects. Public-private-partnership (PPP) based models such as energy savings performance contracting (ESPC) models offered by energy service companies (ESCOs) or other energy service providers have become common tools to enhance the sustainable use of energy through EE measures and have been used by municipalities and cities to implement street lighting programs.

Under this project the existing conventional street lights are replaced with LEDs by EESL at own cost and consequent reduction in energy and , maintenance cost of the municipality is used to repay EESL over a period of time. The EESL into with been has entered an argument Municipalities of 7 years duration where it not only guarantees a minimum energy saving but also provides free replacements and maintenance of lights at no additional costs to the municipalities. The service model enables the municipalities to go in for the state of the art street light with no upfront capital cost. However, the ULBs have to pay EESL from the energy saved and a maintenance cost for seven years. Thus, there is no additional revenue expenditure required to be incurred by the municipality for change over to smart and energy efficient LED street lights. In this system, control switches will be provided across the city, which will automatically start the lights after nightfall, through the photo sensors. The LED street lights are completely safe and do not represent any hazard to the human eye. When compared to conventional do not have mercury and therefore, have no negative impact on environment. LEDs have no gases, filaments or any moving parts to fatigue. The project aims across the 72 ULBs state replace 3.4 lakh traditional street lights with LED lights

In this context, as per the directions of the Hon'ble Chief Minister Sri.K.Chandrashekar Rao garu has initiated the retrofitting of all the street ,lights in the 72 ULBs of the state with energy efficient LED based street lights. The MA&UD epartment has entered into a tripartite agreement Dwith M/s Energy Efficient Services Limited (Joint venture of 4 central public sector undertakings of Ministry of Power, Govt. of India, NTPC Ltd ),the designated agency by Govt of India on piolet scale in 12 ULBs which was later upscaled to all the 72 ULBs in the state. The main objective is to promote efficient lighting, enhance awareness on using efficient equipment which reduce electricity bills and help preserve environment.

Key features of the project

No Upfront Investment to ULB

Enhanced safety, security and visual comfort of a city/ town due to better public lighting.

Energy consumption will be reduced by 50-55% from present levels.

Maintenance costs reduced due to longer life of LED

Better control, observation & metering of all lights through CCMS

Lower load on generation-end due to improvement in Power Factor

Operating costs reduced due to Energy saving, remote control, dimming and real-time monitoring

The faculty from India Institute of Public Administration, New Delhi coordinated the entire visit.

Benefits of the Project

Till date, EESL has retrofitted about 2.62 lakhs conventional lighting system with LED based lighting system in 68 ULBs of the state and the project is likely to completed by December 2017 and this would reduce the energy consumption 60% and financial burden ULBs says the Dr.T.K. Sreedevi IAS, Director Municipal Administration. She also adds that the initiative would improve road safety, aesthetics in the cities and seamless services with built in O&M during the project period by EESL.

Reduction in energy consumption and costs: Energy savings of 50%- 60% compared to present lighting systems installed.

Optimising Operational Performance: Centralized Control and Monitoring system is providedto optimize performance and increase uptime.

Social benefits: Enhance/ Improve the quality of light and thereby the safety aspects in public places. Better and more reliable services to community.

Reduced operation and maintenance cost: The life of LED fixtures is more than thirteen years, leading to reduction in maintenance cost.

Environmental Benefit: Reduced energy consumption leads to reduction in greenhouse gas emission.
