Why Add Controls to LEDs?
Save Energy Beyond LEDs
• Reduced energy usage w/ over-provision dimming
• Avoid day burners w/ proactive maintenance
• Add’l energy savings with adaptive and dynamic lighting schemes
Reduce O&M, Capex
• Lower call volume w/ proactive maint. (FPL: 120k calls per year)
• More efficient field ops w/ real-time asset info (5% failure/year in CHI)
• Avoided litigation w/ real-time asset info
• Better asset mgmt. and billing (10% unknown/unbilled)
Deliver new services
• Premium services: customer control, motion
• Additional services for cities: sensor data, water, gas,
traffic, parking, emergency service
• Invoice smart city device connection to network
Energy Reduction
25% to 45%
O&M Reduction*
20% to 40%
Value of Service**
$200 to $400
per year
* Maximum reduction achieved when transitioning from nightly truck rolls to remotely identified outages
** Value of all-in streetlight management agreements, based on $100M, 5-year award for Washington DC for 70k, €80M for 20k for 12 years in CPH, includes luminaires

Improving Relations with Cities and Communities
• Provide smart streetlights to municipalities within
smart grid territory
• Provide new services that improve city relations and
create good PR opportunities
• Create new revenue opportunities from existing
network infrastructure
“Silver Spring’s networking technology and street light solution should
enable FPL to deliver an even better experience for our customers
throughout South Florida… we expect to leverage our smart grid
investments and ensure greater efficiencies and reliability for our street
light and existing smart grid networks.”
- Eric Silagy,
President and CEO, FPL
The smart streetlight application is only one of many capabilities
offered by our smart grid technology. This technology has the
ability to be paired with other applications that would help improve
safety, security and quality of life for the communities we serve.
- Anne Pramaggiore
CEO of ComEd

Using Controls to Avoid Deployment Problems
Rhode Island: City Engagement
Under the Municipal Streetlight Investment Act, cities and towns will be allowed to buy
their streetlights from National Grid, under a purchase price developed in coordination
with the state and approved by the Public Utilities Commission (PUC).
The new law also offers municipalities the option of solid state control — meaning they
will be able to dim the lights for certain hours or replace the current technology with
energy-efficient lights to save money instead of turning them off outright.
City of Davis: LED replacement
“After the city installed 650 new LED lights in May designed to save money, several
neighbors complained about them, so Davis city leaders will spend $350,000 to
replace the lights…neighbors complained about the brightness and the cool color
temperature of the new LED bulbs.”
Brooklyn NY: LED dimming
“While it is figuring out a long term solution (to customer complaints about glare) the
city has been sending workers out to adjust the angle of LEDs to stop them beaming
into resident’s homes.”
