Today, public lighting plays a crucial role in making cities more livable, safer, and aesthetically pleasing. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), public lighting systems account for approximately 19% of total electricity consumption worldwide. This figure highlights how critical lighting choices are for municipalities in terms of both energy management and budget planning. %19’unu oluşturuyor. Bu oran, hem enerji yönetimi açısından hem de bütçe planlamasında belediyeler için aydınlatma tercihinin ne kadar kritik olduğunu gözler önüne seriyor.
However, choosing the right lighting is not just about energy efficiency. Factors such as suitability for the area, durability, aesthetic harmony, and sustainability must also be considered. In this blog post, we’ll break down the key points municipalities should consider when illuminating their cities.
Define the Purpose of Lighting
Before selecting a lighting product, it’s essential to identify the purpose and needs of the area to be illuminated.
- Parks and gardens: Should provide both comfort and safety while creating a peaceful atmosphere.
- Yaya yolları ve kaldırımlar: : Should make navigation easier and improve pedestrian safety.
- Streets and roads : Should enhance traffic safety with wide-angle and powerful illumination.
- Tarihi ve kültürel alanlar: : Products that blend with the environment without damaging architectural integrity should be preferred.
This analysis is vital for choosing the right type of product and light intensity.
Prioritize Energy Efficiency and Sustainability
Rising energy costs and environmental responsibilities are pushing municipalities toward more sustainable solutions.
- LED lightsconsume 60–80% less energy than traditional systems.
- Solar-powered polesoperate without infrastructure and bring zero electricity costs.
These solutions also help reduce carbon emissions and align with environmental policies.

Opt for Durable, Long-Lasting Materials
Public lighting systems are constantly exposed to external elements. Therefore, selected products must offer:
- High impact resistance,
- Protection against harsh weather conditions (rain, snow, extreme heat/cold)
- Corrosion resistance
Galvanized steel poles, stainless steel fittings, and fixtures with IP protection classes ensure longevity and easier maintenance.
