Supporting clean mobility with connected street lighting

Decarbonising the transport sector

 

To reach the internationally accepted targets of climate neutrality by 2050, the transport sector must reduce its greenhouse gas emissions by 90%. But not all transport means are equal: cars and trucks are major emitters (72% of all transport-related greenhouse gas emissions), while rail (0.5%) is not. Consequently, radically decarbonising road transportation is a major goal of effective sustainability planning.

What Signify's Green Switch can do


The UK aims to ban the sale of petrol and diesel cars by 2030, but to make this a reality there must be a sufficient network of EV charging points well before then.  Connected LED street lighting can help with charge points built directly into light poles. Electricity savings from both LED street lighting and smart buildings can balance the increased electrical load, keeping costs low and avoiding the need for additional power generation.

    Biodiversity

    A farm-to-fork approach helps to preserve the world’s food supply. LED grow lights boost crop quality and yield with up to half the energy consumption. Lighting designed for vertical farming near cities reduces the carbon and water use, and reduces food miles, while aquaculture lighting increases yield, improves feed conversion and improves animal welfare.

  • Renovation wave

    Renovation wave

    With energy savings of up to 80% and the potential to save 100 megatons of GHG emissions per year, LED and connected lighting is a quick and easy win for sustainable renovation, smart cities, and building the digital infrastructure that a carbon-neutral economy requires.

  • Clean energy

    Clean energy

    Harness the power of sunlight with hybrid and solar street lighting. Minimize emissions, build a citywide digital infrastructure, and scale up the use of renewables in your municipality. Use the energy savings to support integrated initiatives, such as powering electric vehicles.
