Small Towns, Big Changes: Edison Next Lights Up the Future of Lles de Cerdanya

Nestled in the breathtaking Pyrenees, the municipality of Lles de Cerdanya is surrounded by pristine natural beauty. Here, environmental protection isn’t just a commitment—it’s a shared priority for institutions, businesses, and residents alike. That’s why the Lles de Cerdanya Town Council has taken a decisive step toward sustainability by awarding Edison Next the contract to modernize its public lighting systems in the villages of Lles and Viliella.

A Brighter, More Efficient Future

The project involves replacing outdated sodium vapor lamps with cutting-edge LED technology, along with a full technical upgrade. This transformation will bring significant benefits to the municipality: ✔ Lower energy bills – Reducing municipal costs ✔ Lower emissions – Cutting greenhouse gases ✔ Enhanced night skies – Preserving one of the area’s greatest natural assets

This initiative builds on previous lighting improvements in the municipality, but with Edison Next’s support, Lles de Cerdanya will complete its full transition to LED—one of the most efficient and sustainable lighting solutions available.

Funding for a Greener Tomorrow

The project is partially funded (up to 50%) by grants from the Catalan Government’s Department of Climate Action, Food, and Rural Agenda, supporting environmental improvements and climate action initiatives between 2023 and 2025.

Why LED? Efficiency Meets Sustainability

LED technology offers far more than just energy savings (up to 80% less consumption). It also: ✔ Lasts longer, reducing maintenance needs ✔ Minimizes light pollution, protecting nocturnal wildlife ✔ Improves visibility and comfort with optimal light direction and warmth

For a place like Lles de Cerdanya, where the night sky is both an ecological treasure and a tourist attraction, these benefits are especially valuable. The new lighting has been carefully designed to emit just the right amount of light, in the right direction, with the most pleasant tone possible—enhancing safety while preserving the area’s natural darkness.

Edison Next’s Commitment to Rural Sustainability

At Edison Next, we believe that small towns play a crucial role in the energy transition. This project reflects our dedication to energy efficiency and sustainability at every level—helping municipalities modernize their infrastructure while respecting their natural surroundings.

With extensive experience in rural and natural-area lighting upgrades, we’ve provided Lles de Cerdanya with a tailored, responsible solution that meets the highest technical and environmental standards.

Lighting the Way Forward

For us, every upgraded streetlight and every watt saved is a step toward the future we all must build together. We’re proud to support Lles de Cerdanya in this initiative—where local action meets global impact, everyday needs meet innovation, and technology works in harmony with nature.

And we won’t stop here. Edison Next will continue helping other towns transition to smarter, more efficient energy models—because sustainability starts at the local level, one light at a time.
