During routine grid-based inspections, staff from the Street Light Management Office of the Nan County Urban Management and Law Enforcement Bureau identified several areas with lighting deficiencies. Streets such as Songtian Road and Yangshushan Lane were particularly affected due to shade from trees and narrow pathways. These issues were especially pronounced near the building materials market and Guihua Garden School, where mixed pedestrian and vehicle traffic posed significant safety risks.

Through community meetings and on-site light intensity measurements, the Bureau identified six priority locations for upgrades and established a dynamic list of “problematic street lights.” Tailored solutions were implemented based on the specific conditions of each area:

On Songtian Road, 2-meter extended lamp arms were installed to penetrate the dense tree canopy.

Near the building materials market, high-power, high-luminance LED street lights were erected.

In narrow residential lanes, short-armed, warm-light, low-wattage lamps were chosen.

Additionally, the locations of 12 distribution boxes were optimized throughout the installation process to facilitate future maintenance.

In the next phase, the Street Light Management Office plans to introduce a “Lighting Index” evaluation system and launch a 24-hour hotline for reporting lighting issues. The Bureau aims to complete lighting upgrades in seven remaining back streets and alleys within the year, ensuring residents can return home safely and with peace of mind.

Among the 97 residential communities in the Kebul Town area of Chahar Right Middle Banner, some old neighborhoods previously had no street lights, posing significant safety risks for residents traveling at night. As part of the “Brightening Project,” Kebul Town organized grid workers to conduct door-to-door visits and create a “lighting blind spot map.” Ultimately, 23 communities with poor basic conditions and strong resident feedback were identified as the first batch of pilot sites for renovation, where solar street lights were installed to achieve “lighting wherever needed.”

Xie Junyi, a resident of Kebul Town, Chahar Right Middle Banner, said, “Installing solar street lights in our community is both economical and energy-saving, as well as safe and environmentally friendly. Before, this road was completely dark at night, and there was quite a lot of traffic. Now, it’s bright in the evenings, and we don’t have to worry about the safety of walking at night anymore. It’s truly a beneficial and people-friendly initiative!”

With the continuous implementation of the “Brightening Project,” not only has the practical issue of nighttime travel for residents been resolved, but it has also added a sense of comfort and security to their journeys home.

Xia Jincheng, Deputy Secretary of the Kebul Town Committee in Chahar Right Middle Banner, stated, “Kebul Town is actively advancing people’s livelihood projects. This time, we installed 293 street lights in 23 communities across the town. The installation work has currently been completed. We will continue to focus on the needs of residents, keeping people’s livelihood matters in mind, taking them firmly in hand, and implementing them effectively, using practical actions to light the ‘lamp of satisfaction’ in people’s hearts.”

There are no small matters in people’s livelihoods, and every detail reflects care. Chahar Right Middle Banner will take these livelihood projects as an opportunity to integrate the philosophy of “I Do Practical Things for the People” into grassroots governance. Relying on grid-based management, a closed-loop service mechanism of “residents ordering, communities dispatching, departments accepting, and the public evaluating” will be established, allowing more people-centered projects like the “Brightening Project” to take root and flourish.

282 new LED lamps have been installed in downtown Hengshui, Hebei Province

To actively respond to the national call for energy conservation and emission reduction and promote the development of green, low-carbon cities, the Hengshui City Streetlight Management Center in Hebei Province recently launched an energy-saving renovation project for streetlights along Shengli Road (from Qianjin Street to Wenjin Street). All 282 high-pressure sodium lamps along the route will be fully upgraded and replaced with new, high-efficiency LED lighting fixtures.

“Compared to the previous light source, these LED lamps provide a brighter impression at the same illumination.” On May 29th, staff from the Hengshui City Streetlight Management Center were installing streetlights at the intersection of Shengli Road and Qianjin Street in downtown. Once completed, this renovation project will not only significantly improve street lighting quality but also significantly reduce energy consumption, creating a safer and more comfortable nighttime travel environment for residents. Compared to traditional high-pressure sodium lamps, new LED lamps offer significant advantages in multiple performance indicators. While traditional sodium lamps offer higher brightness, they often suffer from high energy consumption, short lifespans, and low luminous efficiency. LED lighting, with its low energy consumption, long lifespan, and high color rendering, is expected to achieve an overall energy saving rate exceeding 50%. Calculations show that, assuming a single street lamp operates for an average of 10 hours per day, the renovation can save approximately 120,000 kWh of electricity annually, equivalent to reducing carbon dioxide emissions by over 100 tons, achieving both economic and ecological benefits.

Notably, LED lighting technology also offers a better visual experience. Its soft, even light and significantly improved color rendering index effectively improve the color distortion seen under traditional sodium lamps, significantly enhancing nighttime visibility and safety, and making our city brighter and more vibrant at night.

A representative from the Hengshui City Streetlight Management Center stated that in recent years, Hengshui has continuously promoted the renovation and upgrading of its road lighting facilities. This energy-saving renovation is a key measure for the center to implement its “dual carbon” strategy. With the continuous innovation and widespread application of LED technology, Hengshui’s road lighting system is steadily moving towards greater energy efficiency, intelligence, and efficiency, injecting new impetus into the city’s green and low-carbon development.

Xiamen’s three major bridges and major traffic arteries have completed road lighting upgrades

Due to long-term use, the original road lighting on these three bridges suffered from severe light decay, insufficient illumination, and intense glare. It failed to meet the illumination requirements of urban expressways and first-class highways, posing a significant safety hazard to nighttime traffic. The aging cables and distribution boxes not only harbored hidden dangers but also made maintenance difficult. This renovation addressed these issues, replacing a total of 7,412 sets of LED guardrail lights, laying over 20,000 meters of cable, and installing 557 new switchgear boxes.

The newly installed LED guardrail lights are not only long-lasting and energy-efficient, but also provide precise “fill” lighting with high-efficiency light sources. The replacement of old branch cables and the installation of new switchgear boxes eliminate safety hazards at the source. The upgraded bridge lighting eliminates glare interference, significantly improving road illumination and providing a safer nighttime experience for drivers and passengers. The optimized layout of the power distribution boxes also makes ongoing maintenance more convenient and efficient.

City lighting not only enhances the beauty of the nightscape but also vividly demonstrates care for people’s livelihoods. Next, our center will continue to be guided by the needs of citizens, use innovation to light up the city night sky, let road functional lighting protect travel safety, and continuously enhance the sense of gain and happiness of citizens!

Jiajiang County, Leshan, Sichuan Province, Implements Smart Streetlight Retrofits

In 2021, the country released the “Action Plan for Peaking Carbon Dioxide Before 2030.” The plan’s energy-saving, carbon-reduction, and efficiency-enhancing actions call for: implementing urban energy-saving and carbon-reduction projects; carrying out energy-saving upgrades and renovations of infrastructure such as buildings, transportation, lighting, and heating; promoting the demonstration and application of advanced green building technologies; and boosting overall urban energy efficiency.

Jiajiang County, Leshan, Sichuan Province, Implements Smart Streetlight Retrofits

Cities are becoming greener, and the ecology is becoming more beautiful. To support the concept of green and low-carbon development, improve urban lighting quality, reduce energy consumption, and enhance management efficiency, Jiajiang County has been vigorously promoting smart streetlight energy-saving retrofits since the beginning of this year. Through energy-saving renovations and intelligent management, “green lighting” illuminates low-carbon living.

Streetlights not only illuminate the streets at night but also integrate into residents’ lives with intelligent and multifunctional services, creating a safer nighttime travel environment for residents. This innovative practice is part of Jiajiang County’s efforts to advance smart city development and improve people’s well-being.

Recently, at the Yingchun East Road construction site, reporters observed construction workers busily and orderly removing old lamps and installing smart streetlights. In March of this year, Jiajiang County, Leshan City, Sichuan Province, began implementing a smart energy-saving upgrade and renovation contract energy management project for streetlights. This project retrofitted all 6,693 streetlights in the county. The project included building a smart streetlight management information platform, replacing existing sodium lamps with LEDs, and installing both individual and centralized controllers. Each streetlight and control box was numbered and precisely located, enabling point-to-point precise control, dimming, and intelligent on/off switching of streetlights along sections. This enabled timely troubleshooting, giving each streetlight a “smart brain,” maximizing energy savings while meeting public transportation needs.

“By assigning codes to light poles, each light has its own unique code. Citizens can also conveniently report faulty streetlights by scanning the QR code. The reporting process is simple, fast, convenient, and efficient, allowing citizens to easily participate in streetlight maintenance. Light pole codes can also be used to quickly locate citizens and address their urgent needs.” Xi Lei, Deputy Director of the Jiajiang County Municipal Construction Service Center, told reporters that after the renovation, the lighting on 160 urban roads will be significantly improved, increasing residents’ sense of safety when traveling at night and improving drivers’ visibility, while also significantly contributing to a reduction in traffic accidents.

“In the context of promoting green and low-carbon development, the application of intelligent single-lamp controllers is particularly important. Previously, only lights for a single street or section could be remotely managed at a time. Now, the brightness level of each streetlight can be finely adjusted and controlled in a zoned and timed manner based on actual conditions and citizen needs.” Xi Lei told reporters that this avoids inefficient, one-size-fits-all management, significantly improves the level of refined management and control, and also achieves green energy conservation. The application of intelligent single-lamp controllers makes lighting management more intelligent and automated. Smart single-lamp controllers can monitor streetlight operating conditions, including brightness and on/off status, in real time and upload this data to a professional management platform. This intelligent management approach not only improves work efficiency but also reduces labor costs. Furthermore, during the late hours of the night when traffic is light, a “one-off-one-on” lighting system and multi-stage dimming strategies are implemented. Through these measures, the smart single-lamp controllers significantly reduce streetlight electricity consumption and improve energy efficiency. The implementation of smart single-lamp controllers not only enhances lighting management efficiency, optimizes energy efficiency, promotes green and low-carbon development, but also improves the quality of public services.

According to the “Feasibility Analysis and Implementation Plan for the Smart Energy-Saving Upgrade and Renovation Contract Energy Management Project in Jiajiang County (Draft for Review),” the implementation of the smart energy-saving upgrade and renovation contract energy management project will save approximately 3 million yuan in streetlight electricity bills and approximately 407,100 yuan in maintenance costs annually. This actively supports the national energy conservation and consumption reduction and carbon peak initiatives while also reducing fiscal expenditures.
