Smart Street Lighting Control

Smart street lighting, a reliable platform to develop today’s smart cities

Description

The street lighting is a key public service responsible for creating a safe environment for pedestrians and drivers alike, omnipresent throughout the city. It is also one of the most burdensome services offered by municipalities all over the world. An obsolete street lighting system can account in terms of energy, operation and maintenance costs for as much as 40% of a typical city’s budgetary expenses, without even taking into account the negative impact on the environment.

With a smart street lighting in place, municipalities should be able to:

  • individually manage every streetlight in the city, allowing smart autonomous operation and dimming according to traffic conditions and thus save energy, reduce costs and protect the environment
  • have an in-depth, real-time awareness of the entire street lighting grid with all its components for quickly identifying possible malfunctions and optimize maintenance activities and, thus, increase the quality of services and reduce maintenance costs
  • rely on a citywide, powered infrastructure for any smart city developments
The smart street lighting solution should also be viable in the long term, future-proof, with the possibility to integrate present and future systems and avoid being vendor-locked.

Solution

inteliLIGHT® - FLASHNET’s smart street lighting solution is a complete hardware and software solution providing remote control, detailed monitoring, advanced analytics and actionable intelligence for every streetlamp and feeder pillar in the street lighting grid.


inteliLIGHT® architecture

inteliLIGHT® Streetlight Individual/ Segment Controllers– positioned on or next to the luminaires or inside the feeder pillar:

  • control (i.e. turn ON/ OFF or Dim)
  • monitor (i.e. identify faults, energy theft, measures electrical parameters etc.) and send real-time alerts whenever needed
  • allow autonomous operation based on:
    • predefined schedules (internal scheduling memory, astronomic calendar and real-time clock)
    • light level sensor
    • motion sensing


LoRaWAN™ communication network– ensures secure bidirectional, communication between Streetlight Controllers and Central Management Software:
  • low power, long range communication technology specifically for the Internet of Things
  • excellent coverage and penetration
  • capable to efficiently manage thousands of devices>
  • private network or integrated with public service providers depending on the projects needs


inteliLIGHT® StreetLight Control software – is a user-friendly software application that can be used from any personal computer device to manage and optimize street lighting operation and maintenance activities.
  • System health overview – devices online, faulty lamps, energy consumption, energy savings, notification and ticket status etc.
  • Flexible map visualization
  • Advanced scheduling and manual override
  • Alarms, Alerts and Ticket management
  • Inventory management
  • Advanced data analytics, reporting tools and performance graphs, featuring detailed filtering capabilities (lamp runtime reports, energy savings reports, luminary status reports, etc.)
  • TALQ2 certified, uCIFI compatible

inteliLIGHT® smart street lighting comes with some immediate and measurable benefits but also with long-term benefits:

  • UP TO 35% ENERGY SAVINGS
    By dimming the lights on low traffic hours.
  • REDUCING CO2 EMISSIONS AND PROTECT ENVIRONMENT
    Directly proportional to energy savings.
  • UP TO 42% MAINTENANCE COST REDUCTION
    Optimize maintenance activities by providing exact location, detailed technical information and ticket management.

Annual savings breakdown / Typical 15yrs ROI: 300% inteliLIGHT® cost and saving


  • INCREASED STREET LIGHTING SERVICE QUALITY
    Minimum downtime, proactive solving problems before they are reported and sometimes even before they occur.
  • SMART CITY PLATFORM
    A city-wide network which provides power and communications for smart city sensors and actuators, interoperable with major smart city platforms.
  • FUTURE-PROOF AND INTEROPERABLE
    The system can be integrated not only with most smart city software applications, but can also coexist with other compatible controllers and even entirely different lighting control solutions or smart city aggregators.
