Dobong-gu (Mayor Oh Eon-seok) is conducting a high-efficiency LED lighting replacement project for energy-vulnerable groups.

This project is part of the ‘Energy Welfare Project for Vulnerable Groups,’ which provides free replacement of old general lighting devices with high-efficiency LED lights for households marginalized in energy use. Since 2014, Dobong-gu has replaced and supported LED lighting for 4,792 low-income households up to last year.

LED lighting devices have a longer average lifespan than traditional fluorescent lamps and reduce power consumption by more than 50%, greatly helping vulnerable groups reduce their electricity bills.

Since May, the district has confirmed recipients through recommendations and applications at community service centers. This year, with a budget of 120 million KRW, a total of 900 LED lights will be provided to 153 households.

The replacement work is scheduled to start at the end of June and be completed by the end of July.

Oh Eon-seok, Mayor of Dobong-gu, stated, “Through the LED lighting replacement project, we are doing our best to reduce electricity costs for vulnerable groups and create a comfortable living environment. We will continue to promote this project so that more vulnerable groups can enjoy the benefits of energy welfare.”
