Dynamic Light

Dynamic lighting is intended to improve the energy efficiency of public lighting. IKEM develops financing models and examines the legal framework for dynamic lighting systems.

Project

Public lighting causes around 6% of global CO2 emissions. This is precisely why there is a need to convert conventional lighting to more energy-efficient models. However, local authorities often lack a comprehensive strategic approach to this process. Innovative concepts such as dynamic lighting control based on current conditions and requirements face additional challenges – a lack of legal framework and higher initial costs compared to standard LED lights. This is why communities are reluctant to invest in dynamic lighting systems.

In the Dynamic Light project, IKEM develops financing models and examines the legal framework for dynamic lighting systems.

Impact

On the basis of its research, the IKEM has developed best practice guidelines and publications (see list of publications below) and organized a series of information events and conferences.
