Barcelona council to hand out free light bulbs in push to save energy

Barcelona’s city council, the Ayuntamiento de Barcelona, is to distribute 10,000 energy saving light bulbs in order to promote energy saving in companies based in the city. The handout forms part of the ‘Luz verde en las asociaciones’, a campaign promoted by Barcelona’s Agencia de Energía.

The campaign is being directed at 7,000 organisations present in the city with the intent that they change the light bulbs currently being used in their premises to the newer, energy saving type.

Energy saving light bulbs last ten times longer than normal light bulbs and consume as much as four times less energy, according to the president of the Agencia de Energía de Barcelona, Imma Mayol.
