Since mid-October, Lighting Roura industries has dealt with the restoration of the street lamps of the Avenida Diagonal in Barcelona, deteriorated by the time. As scheduled, last March ended works and, thanks to this performance, you can now enjoy a new lighting with a higher quality and with a significant energy savings. The company has had to carry out a thorough work to miss the modernist character that gives personality to the Barcelona trip.
Due to the optics of the new street lamps, more efficient, exploits much more luminous flux, because this is directed to the area to illuminate avoiding light pollution and intrusive light in homes. While previously the performance the lights did not reach 50% of them, after this installation has been up to 80%. This new lighting has achieved energy savings of 40%, compared to the previous. This translates into a reduction in electricity bills, energy expenditure and, consequently, of the emission of gaseous pollutants into the atmosphere, therefore, an important benefit for environmental care.
In addition to improvements in the optics, also have adapted the doors of electric logs, which gives greater security and waterproofing.
