In addition to the energy and cost benefits, TEDA and the Tianjin Polytechnic University support the development and manufacturing of high-quality LED fixtures in our region for even greater economic benefit.\"<\/p>\n<p>TEDA is the first city area in China to join a rapidly growing consortium of cities in evaluating and deploying LED lighting technology across their municipal infrastructures.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past two years, TEDA partnered with Tianjin Polytechnic University in a large, student-produced LED street lighting project. Twenty graduate students, directed by Professor Pingjuan Niu, Ph.D., designed, produced and installed approximately 1,500 LED streetlights. These LED fixtures were installed more than a year ago to illuminate 15 kilometers along the university's streets.<\/p>\n<p>\"Our students' work speaks for itself,\" said Niu, professor of the solid-state lighting R&amp;D center at Tianjin Polytechnic University. \"LED technology is the most important new development for energy and cost savings in the lighting industry. Our university, its students and TEDA are developing expertise in making the best quality LED lighting with the intent to help accelerate the adoption of LED lighting in China and to increase the economic opportunity for our region.\"<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Tianjin Economic Development Area has joined the LED City program, an international initiative to promote and deploy energy-efficient LED lighting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[240,239,238,121],"class_list":["post-2141","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-energy-cleantech","tag-energy-efficient","tag-led","tag-teda","tag-tianjin"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 -
