The Public Infrastructure and Environment Company of Castilla y León (SOMACYL) has just announced a new tender aimed at renovating and improving the lighting system at La Albuera Stadium in Segovia.

Comprehensive lighting modernization

The tender, with an initial budget of €606,951.37, includes a range of key improvements to the stadium’s lighting infrastructure. These involve the modernization of the field lighting and the installation of a new functional and emergency lighting system on the old stand, which previously lacked these essential features. Additionally, other upgrades to the stadium’s electrical infrastructure will be implemented to improve its operation and safety.

Specifically, the project includes replacing the existing 2500 W metal halide floodlights mounted on 14-meter columns with 1506 W dimmable LED floodlights on 26-meter columns, which will enhance the energy efficiency of the lighting system. Furthermore, several outdated electrical panels in poor condition will be upgraded to meet current regulations, and the old stands will be retrofitted electrically, ensuring proper lighting, emergency systems, and signage in accordance with ITC58 RD 842/2002.

The Municipal Stadium La Albuera is a football stadium located in the La Albuera district of Segovia, the capital of the province of Castilla with the same name. Since 1978, it has been the official stadium of the football club Gimnástica Segoviana, a local team that plays in group V of the first RFEF league. The stadium is part of the Ciudad Deportiva de La Albuera sports complex, which is owned and managed by the city council. La Albuera was born from the need to renovate the old El Peñascal municipal stadium, which for more than thirty years had served as the home for Gimnástica Segoviana and all local teams but had become outdated and nearly unusable.
