Set at Shurtan in Southern Uzbekistan as part of the naming ceremony for OLTIN YO’L GTL, a JV to make high performance, low emissions fuels, the largest light picture using LEDs has been smashed using over a million lights spread across over three quarters of a million square metres – the equivalent of approximately one hundred full-sized soccer pitches, has been recognized as new Guinness World Record for the world’s largest LED light picture. The successful attempt broke the previous record of 50,010 lights.
The light picture, a full-scale plan of an energy plant, used 1,012,840 lights and needed 24 km of lighting cables, 14 km of power cables and 302 KW of power from three generators, a railway station and a nearby gas plant. At the award ceremony in London, Guinness adjudicator Jack Brockbank described the achievement as ‘The perfect marriage of engineering, technology and creativity.’
