LEDsEE AWARDS EFFICIENT LIGHTING 2014
ENERGY EFFICIENCY, ELIMINATION OF LIGHT
CONTAMINATION AND NEW TECHNOLOGIES
REMOTE MANAGEMENT IN OLD N-V ROAD
BADAJOZ CITY COUNCIL
ACTION DESCRIPTION - PREVIOUS
SITUATION

N-V: It was the main route between Madrid and Lisbon. Currently, it has
been replaced by A5-E90, it has reduced its level of circulation and it has
increased its residential component becoming in an avenue of the city.

Badajoz City Council:


Awareness of the importance of LED lighting.
Upgrade and renovation, Infrastructure, Villages, Lighting and Energy efficiency
Department.
 Energy efficiency Plan + renovation quality lighting: New solutions focused on
LED -> Challenge: Products with suitable features to cover residential and street
necessities.

New regulations 2009: Energy efficiency in street lightings -> New
obligations: energy efficiency and control system.

Remote management: The most complete system for controling the
installations.

Previous situation: Low lighting levels and uniformity problems.
ACTION DESCRIPTION


Upgrading street lighting in N-V (part of the road which goes through
Badajoz).
2 Technologies:

LED (adjustable, 99-142 W) instead of High pressure sodium (400 and 250 W).
 Remote management system: Control point by point in real time.

Installed power reduction, higher uniformity, excellent energy consumption
reduction, maintenance costs reduction.
ACTION DESCRIPTION

StarSense system: Light level reduction in low traffic
hours -> Energy and economic savings, CO2 emissions
reduction, connection to municipal optical fiber.

Reparations in 5 street lighting electric switchboards.

Costs:


BUDGET: 331.614,88 €
21% VAT: 69.639,21 €
TOTAL: 401.254,00 €
PROJECT’S RESULTS

SpeedStar+StarSense (remote management system): Important
reduction of energy consumption and environmental impact.

Reduction of energy consumption: 293,2 MWh/year -> Saving: 80%.

Reduction of CO2 emissions: 117,31 ton/year.

Useful life: 100.000 h -> 20 years.

Change in color temperature: 2000ºK (High pressure sodium) ->
4000ºK (SpeedStar).

White light, suitable color rendering, more visual comfort, more
uniformity, elimination of lighting contamination.
INNOVATION DEGREE AND
TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS ADOPTED

Philips Speed Star model lights (LED
technology).

Street lighting electric switchboards connected
to the municipal optical fiber net for
management of the system.

Control system implemented by a remote
management of regulation point by point.
INNOVATION DEGREE AND
TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS ADOPTED

Programming operation:
 Each
light point: Optimal power to get the necessary
light intensity.





Start: Each light point 100% on.
One hour after: Each light point 80% on.
