The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development Released the "Twelfth Five-Year" Urban Green Lighting Plan

In order to promote the "Green City" of the "12th Five-Year Plan" period and improve the level of urban lighting energy management, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has recently formulated and issued the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan for Urban Green Lighting". The "Outline" mainly explains the guiding ideology, basic principles, development goals, and key work and safeguard measures for urban green lighting, and will become the basis for the implementation of urban green lighting throughout the "Twelfth Five-Year Plan" period.

Urban green lighting refers to the adoption of scientific lighting planning and design, adopting energy-saving, environmental-friendly, safe and stable lighting products, implementing efficient operation and maintenance and management, improving the quality of the city, and creating a safe, comfortable, economical, and healthy night environment. Embodies the lighting of modern civilization.

The "Outline" requires that during the "12th Five-Year Plan" period, all localities should aim at building a green ecological and healthy civilized urban lighting environment, and protect and improve people's livelihood as a basic starting point for accelerating the transformation of urban lighting development methods, and advocate green lighting consumption methods. , Under the premise of meeting the basic functions of urban lighting, reduce the unit energy consumption of lighting, improve the quality of urban lighting and energy-saving level, and realize the transformation of urban lighting development methods.

The "Outline" sets overall goals, requires the development of urban green lighting, establishes a management system and operation and maintenance mechanism that is conducive to urban lighting energy conservation and urban lighting quality improvement; improves urban lighting regulations, standards and rules and regulations; establishes and implements urban lighting energy consumption Management assessment system; active use of energy-saving and environmentally friendly products and technologies to improve the energy efficiency of urban lighting systems. At the same time, the “Outline” also identified specific targets, including: using the end of 2010 as a base to reach the end of the “Twelfth Five-Year Plan” period, the urban lighting energy-saving rate reached 15%; before 2015, cities at the prefecture level and above and the eastern and central regions County-level cities must complete the preparation or revision of urban lighting planning according to the relevant national planning requirements, and approve the implementation according to legal procedures; improve the urban green lighting standard system, formulate and revise relevant standards and regulations, and study and formulate green lighting evaluation in cities. Methods and standards: Enhance the construction and maintenance of urban lighting facilities, improve urban functional lighting, eliminate non-lighted areas, install 100% of the road lighting rate for new construction, reconstruction, and expansion, and increase the lighting ratio of road lighting main roads to 98%. %, the lighting rate of secondary roads and branch roads should reach 96%, the road lighting facilities should have an intact rate of 95%, the landscape lighting facilities should have an intact rate of 90%, and the lighting quality and energy saving level of urban roads should be improved; Standardized management; promote the application of efficient lighting energy-saving products.

The "Outline" also pointed out that it is forbidden to use high-efficiency and low-efficiency lighting facilities and products in new construction projects, and to eliminate urban lighting inefficient and high-consumption products in two years.
