Buildings are the largest single point of energy consumption in Europe, accounting for 40% of use and 36% of GHG emissions, while lighting for the built environment is responsible for around 50% of a city’s total electricity use. Doubling the building renovation rate from 1.5% to 3% per year, along with energy-efficient lighting retrofits, are indispensable for reaching the Green Deal’s goals for carbon neutrality, energy efficiency, and renewables.

Clean energy
Harness the power of sunlight with hybrid and solar street lighting. Minimize emissions, build a citywide digital infrastructure, and scale up the use of renewables in your municipality. Use the energy savings to support integrated initiatives, such as powering electric vehicles.
Circular economy
The circular economy has everything to do with sustainable consumption, reuse, and eliminating waste. Signify’s recyclable 3D-printed luminaires cut the carbon footprint for lighting in half. Circular streetlights reduce maintenance costs by 60%, with zero waste to landfill. And Light-as-a-Service approaches promote sustainability along the entire lighting lifecycle.
Clean mobility
Charge stations built into digital streetlights support the Green Deal’s goal of a million EV charging points in Europe by 2025. Savings from energy-efficiency renovations and LED and solar street lighting can power tens of thousands of EVs without extra power generation.
