The Municipality of Geroskipou and the Electricity Authority of Cyprus (Unregulated Activities Directorate) have reached an agreement for the provision of services to upgrade and maintain street lighting in the Municipality of Geroskipou.

The agreement covers the replacement of energy-intensive high-pressure sodium light fittings with LED-technology fittings, in order to improve their performance and save primary energy. The replacement is estimated to take twelve weeks and to be completed by the end of August. The agreement also provides for eight years of maintenance of the new LED fittings at no additional charge.

The cost of the contract to the Municipality will amount to €268,674.21 plus VAT. The project contractor guarantees that, with the use of the new LED fittings, energy savings will be around 60%.
