Outdoor LightingAnkara Tunnel Turkey
Low glare & high uniformity
GE solutionWorking closely with the EGS Engineering Project Team, GE Lighting proposed 260 pieces of its 90W Tunnel LED system. Offering the perfect combination of aesthetics and functionality, the luminaire is ideal for the efficient lighting of low speed tunnels and underpasses.
Key Benefits6 years of 24 hour using lifetime44% reduction in energy using163 000 KwH electricity consumption per annum57% reduction in operational cost2,5 years payback time
ChallengeChanging the original HID system to a more energy saving and low maintanced system to reduce the closures of the tunnels for reparing the lighting. To let the traffic ease and comfortably in and out of the tunnel was also a key point, to avoid the ’black hole’ and the ’flicker’ effect

“It was very important for the city to achieve the best possible illuminance level, without creating glare in the tunnels. Our LED Tunnel fixture uses an optical system that provides high uniformity and excellent vertical light distribution with reduced glare. This creates a safe environment for traffic in terms of improved visibility and comfort.” – said Selcuk Mert, Sales General Manager of GE Lighting Turkey
