Welcome to the E-street pages

E-street partners will increase knowledge and awareness of intelligent street lighting and accelerate the use of these technologies in Europe.

The core element for intelligent street lighting is stepless dimming of the lamp depending on the situation; wet or dry ground and even snow in some cases, traffic density and the complexity of the street. In addition the system may include energy metering, two-way communication on the existing power supply and administrative toolkit for utilizing the operational tasks.

Results and findings

  • Europe can achieve an annual savings of 38 TWh electricity by introduce/retrofit old installations with intelligent streetlights (adaptive lighting), as much as 63.7 % on our annual energy consumption for streetlighting
  • During the project period more than 20.000 intelligent street lights has been installed
  • Under the International Commission on Illumination, CIE, a new standard is developed taking into account adaptive (intelligent) streetlighting
  • An administrative tool for handling adaptive lighting is set into operation in Oslo
  • The energy performance contract (EPC) model is modified for streelighting purposes
