Abstract

With the development of new technologies and emphasis on energy efficient lighting, telemanagement road lighting control systems have been introduced to many countries. A telemanagement system enables the lighting system to automatically react to control parameters like traffic density, remaining daylight level, weather conditions and so on. This article starts with introduction of the structure of telemanagement road lighting control systems, and then investigates the applicability of different control parameters and control strategies. Two examples of telemanagement road lighting control systems, Ring III and VT7 in Finland, are discussed in detail. Based on the lighting standards and current control parameters and strategies, recommendations and guidelines are given to further development of telemanagement road lighting control systems. The paper ends up with conclusions and development needs in road lighting control strategies.
