Street and road lighting - what should I look for when choosing luminaires?

Modern cities are increasingly bold in implementing long-term investment strategies in highly energy-efficient street lighting and open green spaces. However, modernising the lighting infrastructure today is not limited to replacing outdated light sources. Conscious design, which aims to increase the safety and comfort of residents while minimising costs and the negative impact on the environment, is setting completely new trends.

Technological developments in LED lighting

Technological developments in LED lighting have enabled a significant leap in terms of energy efficiency. Whereas in the era of sodium luminaires the luminous efficacy fluctuated between 70-90 lm/W and the first LED solutions offered efficiencies of only 120-140 lm/W, new luminaires - such as the Tiara 2 LED (High Efficiency) - exceed 190 lm/W. The impressive light performance means that electricity consumption drops significantly. For local authorities, this means not only a faster return on investment, but also the possibility of systematically upgrading their infrastructure without overburdening their budget.

What should I pay particular attention to when choosing street and road luminaires?

When choosing street and road luminaires, special attention should be paid to the quality of light and the way it is distributed. Modern optics, equipped with different distributions, allow the light beam to be directed exactly where it is needed, effectively eliminating the problem of light pollution. Solutions such as modular Skver LED lamps not only increase the safety of road users, but also protect biologically active areas.

The quality of workmanship and durability of the luminaires is also not without significance. Each Lena Lighting product undergoes a series of rigorous tests at the brand's innovative Research Centre before being launched, including vibration tests, electromechanical strength tests and electromagnetic compatibility tests. This approach guarantees the luminaires' long life and stability of light performance over time, which is crucial from the perspective of keeping the infrastructure in optimum technical condition for many years.

Modern road lighting is also an environmental responsibility

Modern road lighting is also about environmental responsibility. The modular design of luminaires and the possibility of replacing individual components promote waste reduction and rational resource management. Thanks to Lena Lighting's product strategy, investors can be sure that the project being implemented is in line with the principles of sustainable development and effectively reduces the carbon footprint. Confirmation of the high quality and safety standards is provided by ENEC, ENEC+ certificates and compliance with ZD4i system requirements.

Street and road lighting should respond not only to the needs of today, but also those of tomorrow. Luminaires such as Tiara 2 LED, Strado LED and Astra LED exemplify high-tech solutions that support cities in implementing ambitious modernisation strategies, while improving the quality of life for residents and the comfort of public spaces.

Through the use of advanced components and years of experience in luminaire design, Lena Lighting offers solutions tailored to a wide variety of road and street types - from local to urban arteries and transit routes.

FAQ:

What light efficiency parameters do modern LED luminaires offer?

Modern LED luminaires, such as the Tiara 2 LED (High Efficiency), achieve a luminous efficacy in excess of 190 lm/W, whereas former sodium luminaires only gave 70-90 lm/W and the first LED solutions around 120-140 lm/W.

Why invest in modern LED lighting for cities?

Modern LED lighting provides significant electricity savings, a faster return on investment, the ability to systematically upgrade infrastructure without overburdening the budget, and enhances the safety and comfort of residents while minimising environmental impact.

What does modular luminaire design mean?

The modular design, as in the case of Skver LED lamps, allows individual components to be replaced instead of the entire luminaire, which promotes waste reduction and rational resource management in line with sustainable development principles.

What tests do Lena Lighting luminaires undergo before they are launched?

Lena Lighting luminaires undergo a series of rigorous tests at the brand's Research Centre, including vibration tests, electromechanical strength tests and electromagnetic compatibility tests, which guarantees their long life and stable light performance.

What is the importance of optics in modern street luminaires?

State-of-the-art optics with different distributions allow the light beam to be directed exactly where it is needed, eliminating the problem of light pollution and increasing the safety of road users while protecting biologically active areas.
