PubLiCity: Energy Efficient Modernization of Public Lighting in the City of Polack

Main goal is to carry out an energy efficient upgrade of the Polack street lighting. It sets an example for similar changes in other cities of Belarus as well. 1340 modern street lights, some of them solar or wind powered, be in operation in the central streets and avenues of Polack to reduce the city’s costs for street lighting by 15% and cut its CO2 emissions by almost 800 tons. New lamps are integrated into a city-wide automated street lighting control system.  Also, about 200 new poles and lampposts are replaced, while historical buildings and streets of Polack will get new decorative lighting.
