Project details
LED street lighting - photovoltaics
Project target
Establishing of economic and ecological use criteria and limits for a street luminaire using LED technology with a photovoltaic power supply
| Time period | 2011 to 2020 |
|---|---|
| Target group | School children at school bus stops |
| Project idea | Light for children at school bus stops even where no mains connection can be established with reasonable expenditure. At the same time, with the help of the project it is to be worked out where the use of street luminaires with photovoltaic units is economically and ecologically advisable in comparison with a conventional power supply. |
| Project partners | city of Bottrop |
| Project status | Since November 2011 department 66 has been developing and testing lighting systems using LED technology with a photovoltaic energy supply for use at school bus stops, optimised in line with requirements, in areas far from power supply lines. Aims: optimisation of costs and benefits by the city's own project planning as well as collection of operating data for the improvement of the operational reliability of such systems. |
