Streetlight-EPC – Triggering the market uptake of EPC through street lighting refurbishment

The Streetlight-EPC project has created demand and supply for Energy Performance Contracting (EPC) in 9 regions by setting up regional EPC facilitation services and supporting projects towards implementation. The facilitation services provided comprehensive support to municipalities (including members of the Covenant of Mayors) and (potential) ESCOs. In the frame of Streetlight-EPC, 30 projects have already been implemented using a variety of EPC models and 10 more with other financing or operational models. In total, €20.4 million have been invested.

This publication presents 24 of these projects (17 street lighting and 7 indoor lightings) as well as the project approach, key lessons learnt and conclusions.
