The installation process of LED streetlights in Japan is different from that of North America, although many common techniques are similar. In Japan, new residential areas mostly use incandescent lamps to illuminate streets at night and security lighting is used in addition to them.

Moreover, older residential areas are connected to urban water supply systems, which supply and filter drinking water. Therefore, it is less necessary to install streetlights in older residential areas.
The average power consumption of the new residential streetlights security lighting is 150 W. Therefore, the total installed number of new residential streetlights in Japan is approximately 13,000 per 100 km in the nighttime, and approximately 13 million streetlights in total in 2010.
The new residential streetlights are connected to the power grid to supply electricity from 10 p.m. to 6 am.
