Energy efficient reconstruction and modernization of part of the system for external artificial lighting of Vratsa will satisfy the requirements for EE and energy saving, while at the same time, the quantitative and qualitative indicators for illumination provided by the standards in force in Bulgaria will be covered. Street lighting does not respond to the requirements for brightness, dazzle, medium and longitudinal equability of illumination of the roadway and pedestrian lanes. The overall objective of this project proposal is to increase energy efficiency and improve living conditions in the Municipality of Vratsa by technological upgrading and modernization of an external artificial lighting system.
