Car park lighting in Abercarn
New columns, LED lantern upgrades and controls for car parks. For Abercarn retail and business parks, part-night dimming keeps the car park safe while cutting overnight energy use.

Local car park lighting in Abercarn
Many car parks around Abercarn still use sodium lanterns on columns that are structurally fine. Swapping just the heads for LED gives whiter, more even light for much less power.
We programme car park works in Abercarn around opening hours, closing bays in sections rather than the whole car park.
Our teams travel to Abercarn from across Gwent. Typical nearby jobs include Risca, Cwmbran and Pontypool, so we can often combine survey visits.
