Kenosha, Wisconsin will reportedly be retrofitting 750 of its downtown area street lights. The city has engaged Amerlux Global Lighting Solutions to do this project and still maintain its existing street light poles and refractors, thereby saving potentially hundreds of thousands of dollars in replacement costs.
In the spirit of making smart, thoughtful and informed decisions for its citizens, the city of Kenosha undertook a rigorous year-long evaluation process to ensure they would identify and secure the best LED street lighting solution possible for their downtown area, noted Amerlux Chairman and Founder Frank Diassi. They conducted a thorough and well-run evaluation, considering more than seven other lighting companies offering LED lighting products and Amerlux is honored to have our product selected as the best choice in outdoor LED street lighting solutions.
In April the city reportedly tested different brands and LED products from seven different companies. In each of the existing decorative posts in the downtown area the city wants to replace traditional induction-lit lamps. Each lamp was monitored for efficiency, projected cost savings and brightness. Amerlux was selected as a best-of-class LED outdoor lighting solutions provider.
