  Instead of trying it out in streets implementing them in rail way stations and other hubs which attract huge crowds round the clock will be a nice way of reducing power cost

  Not a bad idea at all. How about CE discussing the technical issues related to illuminating public places?
  #-Link-Snipped-# can perhaps tell us how we can project this (and other similar ideas) to the concerned agencies.

  We can definitely have concerned authorities from corporates to discuss this. In fact, I discussed the same topic with my father as we drove to the movie theater late in the evening. He had done a similar project to illuminate a sizeable area and says that it saves a ton of money.
  
  I'll try to write to a few companies and see if they can tell us what the exact problems are.

  I dont understand why they cost more, LEDs are so cheap and the Street lights require no special circuitry. Once, I went to a nearby vendor, and found that they very highly priced when compared to Ordinary Lamps/Some CFLs. The point is, they usually sell in high price though it wont cost them that much.
