An update on the quest for smart-city streetlights in Los Angeles
LA currently maintains about 223,000 streetlights with over 400 different designs dating back to the beginning of the 1900s. Over 4,500 miles of city streets are lit for a population of four million, illuminating not only the roadways, but the sidewalks and pedestrian walkways, bridges and tunnels. LA has installed over 200,000 LED fixtures citywide, and as of today, 90% of the system has been converted with over 30,000 remote monitoring devices attached. This has resulted in savings of electricity worth over $10 million each year and an annual carbon emission reduction of over 60,000 tons.
