Nova Scotia mandates all LED street lights

Nova Scotia has passed a law that requires it convert all of its 120,000 roadway lights to LED lighting, which is expected to save $5 million a year upon completion. The Province of Nova Scotia, Canada has announced it is converting to all LED street lighting, a project which will be completed by 2023. This move has made it the first jurisdiction in North America to mandate the use of energy-efficient LED roadway lighting. Energy Minister Charlie Parker finalized amendments to the Energy-Efficient Appliances Regulations.
