Sorry to hear of the lighting upgrade Hans.
Yes, councils all over Victoria are upgrading the old mercury vapour lamps with LED lamps, they have greater light output (and dont we know it!) but costs about 20-25% of electricity to run. My council spent about $5 million over two years to roll out the LED lights, but they a paid back in less than 5 years.
I recently had lights changed in my street, at least the house blocks out most of the light...
