Smart City Lighting
Itron CityEdge has been chosen by more than 500 government agencies and companies to control more than 4 million smart devices worldwide. CityEdge provides secure access to a scalable CMS for asset management, analytics, control, reporting and permissions-based visibility across your city.
As technology evolves, people demand cleaner water and air, less traffic congestion, smarter parking solutions and more real-time data and digital services. With increasing pressure to manage limited budgets and resources, cities and utilities are looking for solutions to increase efficiency and improve service quality for local stakeholders. Public lighting can be a drain on resources, consuming up to 40% of a municipality's energy budget.
CityEdge is helping cities and utilities take an important first step to address these challenges, while reimagining how they can deliver smart lighting services to increase efficiency, reduce carbon emissions, create safer city spaces and deliver better lighting services.
All cities face the challenges of coping with increasing energy demand, and operational costs and aging infrastructure are costly. One of the easiest first steps a city can take to address these challenges is to upgrade old fixtures to energy efficient LED fixtures. Because it is well known that LED luminaire replacement can provide predictable ROI with 50%+ energy savings.
In addition to LED luminaire replacement, by adding networked lighting controls (NLCs) on top of the luminaires, you can take full advantage of energy-efficient lighting, improved public safety, increased visual appeal, plus energy savings from dynamic dimming and operational savings of up to 30% from reduced field operations.
Furthermore, networked led street luminaires create a multi-purpose IoT network platform that can serve as a springboard for broader smart city rollouts supporting sensors and applications for smart energy, water, traffic, air quality, security and more.
CityEdge delivers Itron's robust and secure street lighting control technology used by the largest utility and city customers in a low-touch, service-based model that makes it the easiest to install and maintain complete street lighting control solution in the industry.

Functional Structure :
In Street & Road Lighting, the distance between the poles is positioned at a distance of 20-40m worldwide. There are 1 or 2 LED Luminaires on each pole. With the Itron CityEdge Smart City Platform, it is controlled by accessing the NEMA or Zhaga interface controllers installed on the LED Luminaires through a central software and connected Cabinet Gateway, MicroAP or Access Points.
The system can operate over the cloud or On-Premises. The system works in a mesh structure with Wi-SUN Field Area Network RF technology. Different operating frequencies can be preferred according to the countries where the project will be carried out. EUB10 868MHz permission-free frequency is used for our country. The system provides a complete field inventory management with real mapping. Customized lighting scenarios can be assigned to annual calendars and sent to thousands of endpoints in a few seconds.
All values of the system running every day are recorded on the central software and can be analyzed retrospectively or instantaneously. In case new endpoints are added or removed from the network, the system automatically continues the operation of the system by creating new communication paths without intervention thanks to its self-repairing and self-healing mesh network structure. With the built-in tilt sensors, remote information about the status and tilt angles of the poles can be obtained and alarm triggering can be programmed when desired.
