Urban Street Lighting Energy Monitoring and Maintenance Management System

Published: 2026-10-13 11:10:50
Traditional street lighting management models rely mainly on manual inspections and fault reporting—suffering from low efficiency, high costs, and slow response times. First, manual inspections are time-consuming and labor-intensive, making it difficult to cover a vast street lighting network. Second, fault reporting is often delayed, leaving broken streetlights unrepaired in a timely manner—affecting public safety and the city's image. In addition, energy consumption lacks effective monitoring, resulting in serious waste and increased municipal burden.

Pain Point Analysis

Low Operational Efficiency – Reliance on manual inspections and paper-based records leads to slow information transfer and delayed problem resolution.
Lack of Energy Consumption Oversight – The absence of real-time monitoring and analysis of electricity usage makes it impossible to achieve energy-saving and emission-reduction goals.
High Maintenance Costs – Frequent manual inspections and repairs require enormous human and material resources, yielding poor economic returns.
Insufficient Safety Assurance – Lighting faults go undetected, potentially leading to safety incidents that threaten citizens' lives and property.

Solution Overview

To address these challenges, WideIOT offers an IoT solution based on data acquisition terminals. The system collects street lighting operational data (from PLCs, meters, sensors, etc.) via intelligent terminal devices and connects to a remote monitoring cloud platform through 5G/4G and other networks. The platform enables visualized monitoring, maintenance management, and data analytics—achieving intelligent, refined street lighting management. This allows faults to be detected and repaired promptly, while intelligent strategies enhance lighting energy efficiency and improve smart municipal management standards.

Key Features

Through equipment maps and data dashboards, the system monitors street lighting status and various data points in real time—such as switch status and switching times.
Configurable tiered alarm rules automatically trigger alerts via WeChat, SMS, or email when abnormal current or voltage data is detected.
Intelligent operating strategies can be configured to enable scheduled or remote switching of streetlights, with different operating schemes set up as needed.
Enables real-time recording and online management of inspection and maintenance tasks—providing visibility into work information and flexible scheduling of maintenance resources.
Generates energy consumption reports by region and by time period—providing reliable data support for energy-saving renovation work.
