Madeira Invests in Public Lighting Modernization with a Budget of Almost 170 Thousand Euros
The Regional Government of Madeira, through the Regional Secretariats for Finance and for Equipment and Infrastructure, has given the green light to a significant investment in the modernization of public lighting. Ordinance No. 101/2026, published in the Official Journal, authorizes the distribution of budgetary charges for the “Public Lighting Conversion” procedure, with a total value of 169,892.24 euros.
This project aims to update and improve the energy efficiency of lighting infrastructures throughout the region, contributing to environmental sustainability and, potentially, to the reduction of long-term operational costs.
The investment distribution will be phased, with 45,634.02 euros allocated to the 2025 financial year and the remaining 124,258.22 euros for the 2026 financial year. Value Added Tax (VAT) at the current legal rate will also be added to these amounts.
The measure, which is already effective retroactively to December 31, 2025, underscores the regional executive's commitment to improving infrastructure and the quality of life of citizens, through more modern and efficient public lighting.
