The first step in creating smart cities is to replace incandescent street lights with LEDs, the most energy-efficient street lighting
A smarter street lighting system allows you to manage the output of each light individually, such as brightening in high-crime areas or programming lights to respond to pedestrian or vehicle activity.
It also allows each light to be independently monitored and maintained, reducing the number of times personnel are sent out to physically check each bulb’s condition. Each bulb becomes an Internet of Things (IoT) ready
Additionally, lighting will reduce criminal activity and provide individuals with a better, safer atmosphere. One of the topics asked of companies and citizens during the city’s consultations was which aspects of lighting were most important to them. Safety, culture, and security all received good marks. Still, the most significant aspect, much to the surprise of many in the organization, was the economy, which 27% of respondents mentioned. When asked if IoT technology could enable the authority to send extra electricity back to the grid in the same way electric vehicles do, he concedes there probably wouldn’t be enough leftover energy to make it viable.

On the other hand, smart street lights can be controlled locally if they are connected. This means that the brightness of particular places can be reduced, or that only a few street lights can be turned on at a time, or that lights can be switched on and off at different hours depending on traffic and other circumstances. This, too, aids in reducing excessive power use
