Energy efficient outdoor lighting: An implementation

Abstract

Lighting strongly influences human daily activities. Smart lighting emerged as new generation of lighting system, able to precisely address the specific needs. Under conditions of shortage in fossil fuels and high prices for energy, smart lighting enables design of lighting systems, which can efficiently use power resources without compromising the user experience. The paper describes implementation of outdoor lighting solution targeting energy efficiency. The proposed approach takes holistic perspective on efficiency and considers light source selection and power management along with control scenarios for lighting scene rendering. System architecture is designed following the Internet of Things vision.

Assessing the electricity energy efficiency of university campus exterior lighting system and proposing energy-saving strategies for carbon emission reduction

“…Smart lighting systems include complicated wireless sensor networks, dimmers, and meters managed by advanced control applications to achieve a specific goal. Since they have improved performance, efficiency, and sustainability, these systems have been adopted as the next-generation standard for lighting systems (Farahat et al, 2014 ).…”

“…The system architecture is designed according to the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT). Farahat et al ( 2014 ) Exterior Some sites It was carried out a research on the effects of urban morphological characteristics on nocturnal exterior lighting environment in cities. Pan and Du ( 2021 ) Exterior University campus It has been investigated to swich off some lights, dimming the lamps, and replacing the lamps with efficient ones using some scenarios for exterior lighting efficiency.…”
