GIB agreed to part-fund the biggest non-Private Finance Initiative streetlighting project in the UK to date. It is providing Kent County Council with a GB£10.2 million Green Loan to help finance the local authority’s GB£40 million streetlight conversion programme. The project involves the replacement of 120,000 traditional streetlights with energy-saving LED alternatives and the installation of a central management system, increasing the efficiency of the local authority’s lighting stock while making it easier to manage.
