NLPIP Specifier Report
The National Lighting Product Information
Program (NLPIP) at Rensselaer Polytechnic
Institute’s Lighting Research Center (LRC)
purchased 14 streetlights, identified by a
specifier survey, between July and October
2009. Four used high pressure sodium
(HPS), one used induction, eight used
light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and one
used pulse-start metal halide (PSMH) light
sources. NLPIP determined how many of
each type of streetlight were needed to
illuminate 1.0 mile (1.6 kilometer [km]) of a
collector roadway to meet the design criteria
specified by the American National Standards
Institute (ANSI)/Illuminating Engineering
Society of North America (IESNA) RP-8-00
(R2005), the American National Standard
Specifier Report :
Practice for Roadway Lighting (referred to as
RP-8 below). NLPIP then calculated power Streetlights for Collector Road
demand and costs per mile. by NLPIP, Nov 2010
Major Findings of the Report
• On average, the LED streetlights and the induction streetlight
could be paced only about one half the distance of the HPS
and PSMH streetlights
