TGS Completes City-Wide Retrofit for Decorative Street Lights in Elk Grove, CA

Canoga Park, CA – January 5, 2017 – Truly Green Solutions, a leading nationwide manufacturer of LED lamps and luminaires, announced today that it has completed a city-wide LED retrofit for decorative post-top streetlights in the City of Elk Grove, California. The contract required retrofits for approximately 3,000 lamps in five different decorative fixture types.

The Elk Grove LED Street Light Installation Project is a city-wide program to convert all city-owned street lighting to LED. The project involved retrofitting of over 12,000 high-pressure sodium streetlights to energy-efficient LEDs throughout the city, and is estimated to save more than $400,000 annually for Elk Grove. The project was divided into two phases, with Phase 2 (The Citywide Decorative Streetlight LED Conversion Project) focusing on replacement of decorative street lights.

“With this LED conversion, we will not only cut overall costs, but also reduce light pollution and vastly improve the quality of light.” said Jeff Werner, Senior Civil Engineer for the City of Elk Grove. “Conversions in Phase 2 will allow Elk Grove to reduce carbon dioxide emissions with annual energy savings up to 75% over the next ten years.”

Truly Green Solutions partnered with installation contractors based in the Sacramento area. The project was completed within a 90 day period.

“Our core values are excellence in everything we do for our clients and customers, including a commitment to innovation and world-class service” said Ruby Jadwet, CEO of Truly Green Solutions. “That said, we craft solutions based on our customers’ needs, and promise to make the most cost-effective products in order to help them to reach their conservation goals.”
