GE Lighting has been instrumental in a pioneering scheme to renew the public lighting in the city of Motril, Spain. The retro-fit of 70% of the city's inefficient lamps with a range of cutting-edge lamps and LEDs from GE Lighting has lead to an average energy saving of 25% and the project has been awarded the Benchmark of Excellence by the European Union, for the successful application of sustainable technologies.
