GOZO - Welcome to the Gozo Eco-Island

The island of Gozo forms part of the Maltese archipelago situated in the Mediterranean Sea, and is the second largest island after Malta. As part of the vision set to turn Gozo into an ecological island by 2020, hence the name of the project Eco-Gozo, one of the set targets is to lower energy consumption and improve efficiency through the use of LED lighting throughout the island. 


This pilot project, partly funded by the European Union and co-ordinated by the Ministry of Energy in Malta, consisted of the upgrading of a total of 3900 low pressure sodium street lighting lamps with the latest technology LED lamps. These new LED lamps provide a white, more focused light, which consume a fraction of the energy of their older counterparts with a longer life-span.
The product engineered and manufactured by Fael LUCE fit the specifications required by ENEMALTA in terms of flexibility of use, modularity and comfort. The chosen product, the TREND WAY LED series is the epitome in streetlight performance, responding to environmental conditions and giving maximum efficiency corresponding to operating times.

THE TECHNICAL SOLUTION

Fael LUCE provided 3900 TREND WAY LED Series streetlights, produced entirely from recyclable materials. The guaranteed long durability of the streetlight performance result in minimized maintenance costs. An accurate technical study of this streetlight series, together with an internal system of heat dissipation which allows heat generated by the LEDs to be removed quickly and evenly, have ensured the reliability and durability of the product. 
According to European standards and specifications, the streetlights have been equipped with programmable drivers, in order to set the right drive current for the luminosity level or illumination desired, thus optimizing consumption. Power can be reduced during night-time hours, when traffic is limited, resulting in additional energy savings. The most salient feature of programmable drivers is their dimming function and the CLO (constant light output). The light output from the LEDs inside the devices decreases over their lifespan. To compensate for this reduction, the driver can be programmed to gradually increase the level of drive current fed to the LEDs. In this way it is also possible to reduce emissions into the atmosphere and energy consumption till 50%. 

Apart from cutting consumption by half, and the positive effects on the environment as a result of a drop in the amount of emissions, the maintenance costs of this lighting system is expected to dramatically decrease by 80% which comes as a great saving for the public purse. Fael LUCE has provided and guaranteed to the entire island of Gozo a functional outdoor lighting solution, essential for road safety and urban comfort. The luminaires provide perfect visibility at night for drivers, cyclists and pedestrians alike, which in the long run should also help in reducing the number of road accidents. As a result of this project and the products supplied by Fael LUCE, Gozo is now experiencing a higher luminous efficiency, greater security and an improved quality of life in the urban environment.
