Smart Street Lighting Energy Consumption Simulation

Abstract

Old-fashioned street lighting strategies, i.e. always on street lights, can pose a significant energy wasting, especially in the areas with low amount of traffic at night. This paper presents review of several Smart Street Lighting (SmSL) strategies, which promise energy saving. For selected strategy, also known as Light on Demand (LoD), a energy consumption models for defined scenario are developed and the results are presented.
