Responsible use

Goal and impact

Offer light on demand to save energy, often in places where no lighting is desired (think outdoor area)

Considerations

Road safety, Flora Fauna, meeting citizen demand.

Human intervention

The dimming profile can be set by municipality

Risk management

No data from citizens are recorded. However, the number of movements per hour is recorded (traffic census)

Impact assessment
