Energy efficiency and pay-back calculation on street lighting systems

Abstract

Energy management involves the study of planning and operation of energy production and consumption of the same judiciously. It involves various processes like environmental management, production management, and logistical data of energy consumption. Energy management involves the method of energy conservation by ensuring sufficient energy is provided for everyday use. As we all know about the famous saying "we have not inherited the earth from our ancestors, instead we have borrowed it from our future generations." The consumption of energy should be done with one eye on the future. As humans, we must have the moral habit of using only what is necessary. During this conversation, we are also reminded by the thought that prevention is better than cure which signifies that preservation of the existing resources is better than repenting for the lost energy. In order to incorporate this task on a smaller scale this work is carried out to minimise the energy consumption in street lighting. In order to go about this, we have proposed a new idea in order to save energy by implementing vehicle detection Street Lighting.
