Analysis Of Led Street Light Cost

Analysis Of Led Street Light Cost

By:


In recent years, LEDs used for lighting have made a lot of progress in cost and performance aspects. LED lighting saves energy obviously compared with traditional light source. LED lighting also has outstanding advantages of long lifespan(up to 100000 h), energy conservation, green environmental protection, small size, easy control, etc.

The light source types that traditional street light lighting is adopted consist of High-pressure sodium lamps(HPS), incandescent lights and energy-saving compact fluorescent lamps(CFLs), etc. Among them high pressure sodium lamps are widely used in the street lighting with high luminous efficiency, energy saving, moderate color temperature, ec. But the LED street lights have more advantages compared with high-pressure sodium lamps.

The following are the analysis and evaluation of LED street light cost from some aspects such as light source, laying cables cost, maintenanec cost, lifespan, safety cost, etc. Then it will be found that LED street light has the outstanding characteristics of high efficiency and energy saving, long lifespan, easy installation, free maintenance and green environmental protection compared to the traditional lights.

1.Light source cost comparison:
The LED street light is used LEDs as light source and changed every 10 years. All the BLUEBOO LED street lights are adopted quality CREE chips. CREE is a famous LED chip manufacturer from US, whose products are made from SiC, GaN, Si and related compound. With unique advantage for materials, all products are of high stability, very competitive in the world. But the traditional street light is often adopted HPS and CFL as light source, which needs changing every year and wastes lots of money and resource.

2.Cost comparison of laying cables:
For LED street light, with easy installation and high stability, there is no need to lay complex wires and it only requires a cement base and stainless steel screw.But for the traditional street light, the inatallation and operating procedure are very complex because of lots of basic projects such as laying cables, digging cable trenches,laying drainage tubes, threading in the tubes, backfill, etc. It needs long-term installation and debugging with complex demands to terrain and lines. Morever, labor and auxiliary material cost are very high.

3.Maintenance cost comparison:
The LED street light belongs to one-time investment and long-term benefit with no maintenance cost, saving energy and long lifespan. The traditional street light needs constant maintenance and replacement to lines and other dispositions, with high electric charge and increasing maintenance cost year by year.

4.Light source lifespan comparison:
The light source of the LED street light LEDs, whose average lifespan of ultra brightness LED is more than 50000 hours, and the brightness is far higher than that of the traditional street light after being used several years. The lifespan of the traditional street light is about 10000 hours on average. Traditional light is used constant-voltage source, which makes light's temperature increase and causes more color attenuation. The longer it is used, the weaker the light becomes.

5.Safety cost comparison:
The LED street light belongs to ultra low voltage product and is operated safely and reliably and no hidden danger. The traditional street light brings lots of safety problems in construction quality, landscape project transformation, materials aging, improper power supply, pipe lines conflict among water, electricity and gas, etc.

6.Others:
The LED street light can adds new selling point for development and promotion of ecological residences with green environmental protection. It can reduce estate management costs, the public expenses that owners share, and construction and maintenance costs. For the traditional street light, the greater the scale is, the higher the installation expense is. The total investment will be far higher than LED street light.

Nowadays, to deal with global climate change and reduce greenhouse gas emissionsevery country develops green economy, low carbon economy and cyclic economy rapidly. As a leader in the LED lighting industry, BLUEBOO focuses on developing LED intelligent system and LED street lighting products to create higher value for the customers and partners in return.
