Reduction of Losses in the Conductors of a Sustainable Street Lighting as a Technique for Managing Energy Consumption and CO2 Emissions

Abstract

In recent years there has been a series of documents such as the European Strategy 20-20-20 to address the issue of energy efficiency in various sectors of activity. Your objective is to reduce 20% of energy consumption, 20% of GHG emissions (Greenhouse Gases) and get 20% of the energy consumed is from renewable sources [1]. The reduction of losses in the conductors of a sustainable street lighting installation as a technique for managing energy consumption, also allows the reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases, accounted for in this paper. Reduction of losses in the conductors of a sustainable street lighting, allowing a better use of the installed power, which can be an important issue, particularly allows increasing the weight of the renewable energies.
