In January 2017, the City continued phase II of its contract with LE Electric to begin a citywide retrofit of its resident streetlights. Initial projections suggest more than 65% decrease in electricity costs with the LED retrofit. LED streetlights have an expected life of 15 years. The overall payback is 2.7 years when factoring in the rebate. The City can anticipate a cumulative net savings of $9.5 million over the life of the installations based on a conservative electricity escalation rate of 3%. This project is part of the Community Investment Program targeted at reducing operating costs through energy efficiency investments.
