"LED there be Light" **

** This is a copy of the title of a story in The Telegraph of 25th April 2010 (see http://www.telegraphindia.com/1100425/jsp/calcutta/story_12378285.jsp ) about how energy efficient LED (Light Emitting Diode) streetlights are  going to be used in KMC (Kolkata Municipal Corporation) for saving energy bill, lowering CO2 emissions and providing for a longer life of street lights.

I was given this link today in an email by Ms Aditi Dass of the Climate Group who is associated with the KMC's LED Project. I also got lots of background material in the email (except any picture of how the street LEDs look!) This was a result of my meeting with Mr Nabarun Sarkar of KMC last week.

I've just written a D.O.  letter to CEO, Haldia Development Authority, advising him to take this forward.
