Public lighting consumes approximately 22m units of electricity per annum at a cost of €3.9m to DCC. 1.1% LED, balance are: SOX, SON, & Metal Halide. Objectives: Reduce cost Cut carbon emissions Potential for intelligent PL central management system. Quantum improvement in quality of public lighting. Move from a passive/functional public lighting service to a proactive service that responds to changes in the environment and in human behaviour. Public lighting with network capability to give city wide networked platform. Reduce Cost and Cut Carbon
