Cartagena, among the biggest save in Christmas lights (20/12/2011)

According to a study of ADECA, against our wasteful municipalities stands the austere side, both the number of days and hours on, as being of the least energy is consumed and lower spending per capita

Trying to save Christmas lighting is difficult mission, but not impossible, as demonstrated Cartagena, one of the towns in Spain with the lowest per capita energy cost, 0.56 cents. This is attested by the IV Study on Christmas lights which has developed ADEC (Association for Civil Rights and Social Economic) in 36 cities.

The report Cartagena is in second place with 0.56 cents per capita spending, just behind Zaragoza, which pay 0.13 cents, and far from cities like Logroño, where spending rises to 17.69 euros per capita.

The data show that there are policies that tend to municipal waste, while other, more austere, have opted to try to reduce costs, reduce days and hours of lighting the Christmas lights.

In this line, compared to an average of 34 days of festive lighting, Cartagena, along with Getafe, Leon and Oviedo are the cities with shorter duration of lighting, with 22 days, following one of the proposals from ADECA to inaugurate the Christmas lights with one week in advance.

As for wakeup times, only two cities are below the 135 hours limit proposed by the Association Calhorra (with 107 hours) and Oviedo (with 125), and Cartagena, third, that is around 142 hours.

Remember that the Christmas lights this year in Cartagena has cost 75,000 euros, 30 percent less than the initial budget of 110,000 euros, ys and have put around 500,000 microlámparas and led tubes in the main streets of downtown .

Its power consumption is 50,000 watts, the energy equivalent of ten homes.
