Flemish cities will benefit from LED luminaires combined with Itron’s intelligent lighting technology, which allows municipalities to centrally manage systems.
Fluvius, Belgian’s largest grid operator and multi-utility company, is working with Itron and Lightwell to improve the efficiency of street lighting in Flemish municipalities.
To reduce Co2 emissions and energy consumption, Fluvius is striving to upgrade more than one million streetlamps with LED technology by 2028.
Intelligent streetlighting
Lightwell’s LED luminaires are being combined with Itron’s smart street lighting solution to allow Fluvius to seamlessly and remotely configure the system.
Itron’s smart street lighting solution, which includes its streetlight controls, intelligent connectivity and central management software, will allow it to further reduce energy consumption and increase operational efficiencies beyond the energy-savings provided by the LED technology.
Lightwell’s Luxis streetlight luminaires will be managed via Itron’s Streetlight Vision (SLV) software application. Benefits of Itron’s SLV solution include automated asset management, flexible scheduling, rapid failure detection and utility-grade metering data.
“Working together with Lightwell, Itron is helping to reduce Flemish municipalities’ energy consumption across the grid operator’s 142,915 miles (230,000km) of utility lines by improving visibility to the street lighting critical infrastructure,” said John Marcolini, senior vice president of networked solutions at Itron.
“The proactive management of smart streetlights serves as an example of how to preserve the integrity of the electrical grid for the future”
He added: “Knowing that public lighting can consume as much as 40 per cent of a municipality’s energy budget, deploying Itron’s intelligent smart city central management software solution will help Fluvius achieve its energy-saving and carbon reduction goals.”
The technology will enable Fluvius to improve energy efficiencies in all 300 Flemish municipalities.
“Through Itron’s smart city management platform, Fluvius can enable dimming of the Lightwell LED streetlights for additional energy savings. At Lightwell, we are thrilled to be working together with Itron as our Luxis LED lighting fixtures will integrate into Itron’s SLV platform with the option to add future smart cities use cases,” said Peter-Paul Metz, CEO of Lightwell.
