Cost Analysis of Smart Lighting Solutions for Smart Cities
Street lighting is an essential community service, but current implementations are not energy efficient and and require municipalities to spend up to 40% of their allocated budget. In this paper, we propose heuristics and devise a comparison methodology for new smart lighting solutions in next generation smart cities. The proposed smart lighting techniques make use of Internet of Things (IoT) augmented lampposts, which save energy by turning off or dimming the light in the absence of citizens nearby. Assessing costs and benefits in adopting the new smart lighting solutions is a pillar step for municipalities to foster real implementation. For evaluation purposes, we have developed a custom simulator which allows the deployment of lampposts in realistic urban environments. The citizens travel on foot along the streets and trigger activation of the lampposts according to the proposed heuristics. For the city of Luxembourg, the results highlight that replacing all existing lamps with LEDs and dimming light intensity in the absence of users in the vicinity of the lampposts is convenient and provides an economical return already after the first year of deployment. ; TRUE ; pub
