Your source for solutions
Landis+Gyr’s intelligent street lighting solution enables utilities to significantly reduce energy costs and extend lighting asset life with remote monitoring and control of both High Pressure Sodium (HPS) and LED luminaires. Smart street lighting offers the ability to adjust and adapt lighting to provide optimal coverage and safety for traffic conditions. Using intelligent communications technlologies, the system can also pave the way for other smart city applications, such as parking and traffic management, outage detection, air quality sensing, weather sensing and more – all on a single, secure network.
Street Light Management
Smart sensors make smart cities. From street lighting to energy management, the role of sensors grow. Automating street light operation is nothing new. But with the rise of intelligent sensors, street light management is now another piece of the utility…

Building blocks for intelligent lighting
Incorporating both hardware and software
Operating as part of Landis+Gyr’s Gridstream® Connect IoT platform, the street light management solution incorporates both hardware and software components. As a part of our Gridstream Connect IoT portfolio, Landis+Gyr’s Street Light Controller and Street Light Management Software serve as a foundation for other smart city applications, while vastly improving energy and operational efficiencies.
The Street Light Controller uses Landis+Gyr’s Gridstream Connect network to provide utilities with smart lighting features. The controller incorporates Landis+Gyr’s Network Node, a fully functional, small IoT radio module capable of communicating on Wi-SUN compliant RF Mesh networks, to connect with the broader smart grid network, and can also route messages from other area sensors and devices. The Street Light Management Software integrates with Landis+Gyr’s Command Center, to enable utilities to monitor lights, receive reports and set alarms.
