Legend LED luminaires improve high street lighting and energy efficiency.
Olivet is a commune located in the Loiret department in central France. It lies on the edge of the Loire Valley, a natural area designated as a UNESCO world heritage site.
Its main thoroughfare, a former national highway, is now a busy shopping including many pedestrian crossings. Lighting was provided by 38 translucent facetted wall mounted units fitted with 250W mercury vapour lamps. The luminaires were of poor colour rendering qualities and very low lumen/watt energy efficiency.
The criteria for Olivet’s high street energy improvement programme took into consideration the main shopping thoroughfare, energy savings, a good colour rendering level and instant light, but with the provision that the existing installation points were to be retained.
Legend LED was selected by the mayor of Olivet due its ancient yet modern aesthetics which blend perfectly into the urban landscape.
Legend LED white light and high colour rendition makes it particularly suitable for lighting for a busy shopping area. The lantern's design together with its street lighting photometrics also eliminates obtrusive light, thus providing residents with a comfortable visual environment.
The use of LED brings a significant reduction in maintenance frequency with no more lamps to be changed and only the lantern's glass to be cleaned.
Legend LED luminaires have also been installed elsewhere in the commune, including Poutyl Park and other locations.
