Work has begun upgrading more than 4000 Brimbank streetlights with new, energy efficient LED technology.
Powered by 100 per cent renewable energy, the upgraded lights will deliver a $6 million saving on net energy, maintenance and repair costs over 20 years.
The project will also provide better quality lighting on Brimbank’s busy roads.
This project is a step forward in Council’s Climate Emergency Plan and Revised Greenhouse Reduction Strategy 2013-2023.
The Plan commits Council to achieving zero net emissions by 2030.
The $3.4 million project will be completed by late 2022.
