Toshiba Lighting, pioneer in the LED market has announced a collaboration with Landis+Gyr, leader in smart metering, in order to conceive and construct the City for the 21st Century.
In this context, Toshiba Lighting plans to propose intelligent lighting founded on the automatic and optimised management of information.
Toshiba wishes to allow citizens to enjoy more convenient and secure spaces in the heart of the city. Buildings, parking lots and streets will be equipped with solutions that can detect movement, the temperature (rain, heat, fog) and the level of daylight (day and night). With these different parameters, the public infrastructure will be able, for example, to light up, intensify brightness or signal a maintenance issue.
This unique vision around the new management of energy allows solutions that are designed for the automation of lighting and therefore offer multiple advantages to the benefiting local councils, such as:
• The management of costs and reduction of maintenance
• A better quality of light in cities
• Improved urban design
• Increased security of citizens thanks to continual solutions-automated lighting
• Better social responsibility, with the luminaires being recyclable and excluding mercury
This initiative by Toshiba Lighting for the cities of tomorrow is part of a much larger approach of the Group called the 2050 Environmental Vision. As such the company aims to create new technologies while minimising their environmental impact. The LEDs developed by Toshiba, coupled with the intelligent lighting systems of Landis+Gyr translate into a transition into products that are more environmentally conscious.
This approach towards outdoor lighting is only possible thanks to the development of LED solutions that are even more efficient combined with control offered by intelligent lighting systems. Toshiba has successfully launched LED lighting solutions in Europe in just three years and today is a major actor in the market. The lighting division is leading the market in equal measure on the innovation and commercialisation of new LED products and highly efficient lighting technologies.
With 92 lm/W, the E-CORE LED Roadlight 9000 is compatible with the EN 13201 standard and combines all technological and design advantages at a manageable cost that also reduces the need for infrastructure maintenance of the road network. This road light, which is water resistant, provides variable and progressive light that is eye-friendly and constantly controls the output of lumens managing an average lifespan of 60 000 hour. This exceptional performance that quickly eclipses the conventional mercury 250 lamp system, coupled with its complete reduction of UV diffusion, is also environmentally conscious in terms of energy output and impact of the surrounding natural habitat of insects.
