Description

Within the framework of the project, it is planned to create LED street luminaire regulation devices and develop an integrated street lighting regulation system. Both separate luminaire controllers and luminaire controllers with an integrated power supply units, which are a unique solution on the lighting market. LED street luminaire management systems currently available on the market are separated from their power supply unit. As a result, the use of such systems significantly increases the total costs of a luminaire. The integration of a power supply unit into the management system would reduce the amount of components used and their total price. The project will be developed within the Green Technology incubator.

Summary of project results

Within the Norway grant project Latvian start-up company SIA Citintelly has developed multi functional and unique cloud base street lighting central management system (CMS). It is innovative solution to manage large scale outdoor lighting networks in order to control and monitor street lighting infrastructure while saving energy and reducing maintenance costs. Currently, the number of suppliers of LED luminaire management systems operating on the market is limited — the available systems offered by small manufacturers are rather new and their wider use has been commenced comparatively recently; hence, these systems have not been approbated yet. As a result, there are a lot of complaints from customers regarding the quality of system operation and service. Whereas, the management systems of globally recognised brands (Philips, Siteco, Schreder) are often twice as expensive as the lighting management systems of smaller manufacturers. But implementation of Norway grant project allowed company to develop innovative CMS that meets the high quality requirements of Western Europe and will be fit the appropriate price category along with smaller competitors. Lighting CMS is just the first step of more sophisticated Smart City platform development process. Project was implemented within the Green Technology incubator For additional information look in web site http://www.citintelly.com/
