Análise dos Impactos da Modernização da Iluminação Pública com Tecnologia LED: Estudo de caso do Município de Ituiutaba - MG

Abstract

With the growing demand for sustainable and economically viable solutions in the electrical energy sector as a whole, and considering that public lighting represents a significant share of a municipality’s energy consumption, this study aims to evaluate the impacts caused by the replacement of traditional public lighting lamps with LED lamps. Owing to technological advances, LED lamps have proven to be much more efficient, durable, and safer solutions when compared to sodium vapor and mercury vapor lamps, which are the most conventionally used technologies in public lighting systems. Throughout this research, the results obtained demonstrate how this replacement can provide significant benefits for the municipality, such as reduced energy consumption, lower maintenance costs, increased safety, and greater durability.
