About the project: The District has more than 75,000 lights installed on our streets, alleys and other public spaces. The lights currently use a variety of inefficient bulb technologies, including incandescent and high-pressure sodium. The District is seeking a private partner to retrofit the lights with more energy-efficient light-emitting diodes (LED), install a remote monitoring and control system, and repair and maintain the fixtures under a long-term performance-based contract. This project will also incorporate smart city technologies, installing wireless access points across the District, improving the DC-NET public WiFi program.
