Horticutral Lighting
Road lighting plays a crucial role in ensuring the safety of drivers and pedestrians while enhancing overall comfort for citizens. Governments allocate significant funds towards road lighting construction every year. While attention is often given to factors like warranty, anti-corrosion performance, and wireless lighting control to increase the advantages when bidding on the projects, however, the total budget of the project is often affected if the quality of the product is too high.
Is there a way to ensure high-performance streetlights while also adopting cost-saving measures to maintain an overall affordable price for the project? Yes, let's also consider the inclusion of light poles in our analysis.
The importance of light poles
Light poles are typically managed by the government or handled separately from lighting fixtures. However, engineering companies and customers can greatly influence the budget and success of a project by considering the cost of light poles. By optimizing light distribution angles, the number of light poles required can be reduced significantly, potentially leading to a 40% to 50% reduction in the government's budget. This cost-saving opportunity increases the likelihood of winning projects.
Considering the cost of light Poles
The cost of light poles varies depending on factors such as material and place of origin. While an average cost of $2000 to $3000 USD (excluding installation, maintenance, equipment, and labor) is reported, it is important to note that these figures are indicative and subject to variations. Therefore, it is advisable to conduct thorough research and consult with suppliers to obtain accurate cost estimates for specific projects.
Optimize light distribution
| The key to reducing the number of light poles lies in optimizing light distribution. By employing innovative lighting technologies, such as lens designs like AGC’s "batwing" lens, which disperses light in a wide and efficient manner, it is possible to achieve the desired lighting requirements while minimizing the need for additional light poles. This approach ensures cost efficiency without compromising safety or visual comfort. |  |
Take one street light with a 60km road as an example, and the required lighting fixture quantity is as below:
- Light Pole Distance 30M: 2000pcs lighting fixtures
- Light Pole Distance 60M: 1000pcs lighting fixtures
It saves not only the cost of light poles and lighting fixtures but also other costs such as maintenance, cleaning, etc., which is a great advantage when bidding on a project.
