Case Study: City of Baytown achieves energy savings and improved roadway visibility with Cree Lighting LED highway street lights

City of Baytown cuts highway lighting energy use with Cree Lighting in 2.5 years

The City of Baytown sought to upgrade its highway lighting to reduce energy use, lower maintenance needs, and curb expenditures for its taxpayers. To address this, the city worked with vendor Cree Lighting and implemented a test using their LEDway street lights.

Cree Lighting's solution involved replacing high-pressure sodium fixtures with nearly 350 LEDway luminaires on major state highways. The results were significant, providing dramatically improved lighting quality and visibility for motorists. The upgrade also led to measurable reductions in energy consumption and maintenance, creating a positive impact on the city's budget. Cree Lighting's successful test program with the city also established a model that could be replicated for highway lighting throughout the state of Texas.
