Solar-Powered Lamps in Porac Pampanga

 Right after Christmas Dec 26,  I went to Calzarang Bayu in Porac near Manibaug  with my baby boy Kyle. I noticed the solar powered lamp that are installed in avenues and roads from Angeles to Manibaug. I was amazed this is the first time  I saw solar powered lamp in the roads. Great idea  thumps up!  for the Municipal Government of Porac. Solar Powered Lamps are Eco Friendly and energy saver.



  I want to know who are the people behind this  project and this what i found in Google.


PORAC -- The Municipal Government of Porac is set to install solar-powered lamp posts in main thoroughfares of strategic barangays here.

This was disclosed by Councilors Ludi Muli and Gilbert Santos, majority floor leader and chairman of the committee on appropriations of the Municipal Coucil, respectively, during a meeting with the town’s barangay captains over the weekend.

Muli said the energy-saving lampposts will be installed in main avenues and roads from Barangay Sta. Cruz all the way up to Barangay Manibaug.


“These lampposts will be installed in strategic barangays with vital thoroughfares. Not only will we be using green energy on these that protects the environment but will also help our barangays save on electricity. We will start installing them soonest at Barangay Sta. Cruz then onwards to Manibaug,” he said.
Santos, for his part, told Sun.Star Pampanga that the Municipal Government has sufficient funds, although he did not disclose exactly how much would be spent for the solar-powered lampposts.
“It will actually be a one-time expense and investment. There would be huge savings for barangays in return since the solar-powered lampposts are almost maintenance-free, except for the bulbs and the batteries which have a shelf life of five years, more or less. This will be one of our legacies to Poraqueños when we leave the halls of the Sangguniang Bayan (Municipal Council),” he said.
