2018 outdoor lighting designers face 10 problems

Outdoor lighting is one of the first few types of lighting that turns to LEDs earlier, and the energy efficiency benefits, albeit highly, have given rise to new challenges that will keep outdoor lighting designers on standby. The following are the top 10 challenges in the new year.

Glare

This problem will not disappear. People are increasingly realizing that too many poorly-controlled lamps are installed when the LED is beginning to popularize. And in some places, low-color lighting is also popular with residents dislike.

2. The end of private initiative financing (PFI)

Large-scale private financing LED era is coming to an end. But when the dust settles, authorities in some places are still wondering whether these items are worth the money, at the expense of lighting quality.

3 electric car charging

The general government believes that its street lamp network can provide the perfect charging solution for the coming era of electric vehicles. However, this is not the case, technical problems abound, especially when working at high currents. If outdoor lighting experts pointed out that these issues will not be a welcome thing, after all, people are willing to listen to good news.

Connect

Free Wi-Fi connectivity and faster download rates are an important aspect of the competition, and now brick-sized 5G base stations are on the agenda and outdoor lighting networks are the ideal place to settle. If London will be installed 500,000 such a network of poles.

5. Street lights shut down

The lack of funding for local government closures of street lights is still widespread, with dimming being the solution proposed by lighting control manufacturers, but how to get funding is a headache.

6. Blu-ray hazards

Blu-ray components of many LED lights have sparked residents' concern about health damage. Last June, the influential American Medical Association said LED color temperature should not exceed 3000K, sparking heated debate, so far.

7. Smart City

Managers all want their city to be a "smart city," though it sounds like a good idea, but there is no conclusion as to what a "smart city" is and how it can be achieved. However, one thing has been agreed: the street light should be one of smart cities At least the lights have some sensors.

Light pollution

The picture from NASA was shocking and long-standing doubts came true: the arrival of LED lamps did not reduce light pollution as people had naively expected, but the situation worsened. This issue may need to be legal and regulatory constraints.

Lack of strategy

It's hard to plan for city lighting for the next 30 years, which is why outdoor lighting engineers love tactics. For example, the London Project on page 526 deals with only about 6 lighting ...

10. Prepare for the future

When the new generation of lamps and lanterns will be prepared for many years, how to arrange for the future need to provide a series of auxiliary services such as CCTV, pollution sensors, traffic detectors and Wi-Fi, without having to spend extra budget? This is a problem.
