Saint John Energy is not prepared to convert its street lamps to energy efficient L-E-D light bulbs. But President, Eric Marr tells CHSJ news they are considering the idea. He says they have received three samples of L-E-D lights and will be installing and studying them to determine if SJ Energy will need to re-design their street lamps or simply replace existing incandescent bulbs.
Marr says they are interested in making the switch if it’s cost effective–but–says L-E-D lights are currently quite expensive. A Nova Scotia town has recently decided to replace all of its street lamp bulbs with L-E-Ds.
