In recent years, several cities in China have experienced severe smog, which not only endangers people’s health but also significantly impacts transportation. LED streetlights, being green and environmental-friendly with high color rendering properties, are an effective solution against smoggy weather.
Causes of Smog
Smog is caused by vehicle exhaust emissions, industrial waste discharge, and pollution from fireworks and firecrackers.
Impact of Smog on Traffic
Smog acts as a visual barrier with numerous particles suspended in the air, resulting in low visibility and adversely affecting transportation, which significantly increases the incidence of traffic accidents.
Bringing Light with LED Streetlights
In smoggy conditions, road lighting must be well-considered, with safety as the top priority. To achieve an optimal lighting effect, it is essential to select light sources with high color rendering index and low color temperature. LED streetlights provide excellent color rendering, accurately displaying real-world colors to meet various environmental needs, alleviating feelings of oppression caused by traditional lamps with inappropriate color temperatures, and ensuring visual comfort for pedestrians and drivers.
Benefits of LED Streetlights
Currently, lighting consumes 15% to 20% of China’s total energy consumption. The new generation of LED lighting technology has significant energy-saving potential. If widely promoted across the country, LED technology could effectively save over 10% of national electricity generation. The benefits of semiconductor energy-saving and emissions reduction are evident; as of now, the semiconductor lighting industry has a production value of 420 billion yuan, saving 200 billion kilowatt-hours and reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 20 million tons. LED streetlights contribute to a greener Earth.
