Smart Street Lighting System to Overcome Energy Crises in Pakistan

EasyChair Preprint 2175

Abstract

Deficiency in the energy sector is the major problem of Pakistan which also obstructs economic growth as well. Pakistan is suffering from major energy crises since 2005. Pakistan is trapped by low energy and high consumption of energy. The versatility of technologies like Arduino, cloud storage and the availability of everywhere wireless internet connection intelligent street lightning system becomes reality. The conventional Street lightening system remains online most of the night without any purpose and in the result large amount of power is wasted. The key idea that we want to achieve is “Energy on demand” i.e. will be available whenever needed. In order to accomplish our goal, smart street lightning system (LS) a feasible solution is purposed that will use an Arduino and its different shields based on motion-based actuation system to automate the street lightening system. The purposed framework ISLS has great potential to revolutionize the street lightening and to accomplish the demand for flexible street lightening system.

Keyphrases: Arduino, Automation, IoT, IoT development, Street lighting system
