The streetlights do they automatically connect to your grid or is there an extra step you need to take?

You just need to check in the config notecard. Set as below to have them connect to the region grid.
# Set to 1 to auto-connect to region power grid
ON_GRID=1
# Can be  Electric  or  Gas

If it was set like that then it should be able to connect to your grid. Do make sure that the group the light is set to matches the group the electricity controller is.

Also I have found sometimes you need to click on the light and select Disconnect, then click again and reconnect it.
