At the 2024 Shanghai Green Lighting Forum and the "Shanghai Green Lighting Development Report 2023" press conference held recently, reporters learned that as of the end of last year, Shanghai had completed the transformation of about 400,000 LED lamps, basically achieving the goal of full coverage of LED lamps in the urban area, and it is expected to save 160 million kWh of electricity and reduce about 160,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions each year.
It is understood that the "Shanghai Green Lighting Development Report 2023" summarizes the development status of Shanghai's urban lighting industry, reviews the practical results of green, low-carbon and energy-saving transformation last year, and looks forward to the high-quality development path and new pattern of the urban lighting industry in the future. At the same time, the release of the "Report" is also a positive response to the "dual carbon" strategic goals of the country and Shanghai, and provides reference and reference for further promoting the green, low-carbon and intelligent development of Shanghai's urban lighting industry. Current status and challenges of urban lighting facilities.
By the end of 2023, the total number of road lighting in the city is about 924,000, of which the city and district construction management departments manage about 724,000, the city traffic management department manages about 100,000, and each development zone and township manages about 100,000. The annual electricity consumption of road lighting managed by the city is about 580 million kWh. The total number of street light poles is about 540,000, of which about 36,000 are integrated poles. There are about 16,000 control boxes (stations), about 14,000 area controllers (ACUs), and about 130,000 single lamp terminal controllers (TCUs). Through the implementation of energy-saving transformation and integrated pole construction projects, Shanghai has achieved remarkable results in reducing energy consumption and carbon emissions, improving the energy efficiency of urban lighting, and improving the quality of life of urban residents. At the same time, the promotion of integrated pole construction has improved the intensive management level of lighting facilities, reduced the occupation of urban space, and improved the overall aesthetics of urban landscapes.
In 2023, Shanghai has achieved remarkable results in the practice of green lighting. In terms of landscape lighting control construction, top-level planning and standard formulation have been deepened, the construction of district-level landscape lighting centralized control system has been promoted, and the control rate and refined management level of landscape lighting have been effectively improved. By implementing projects such as the Red Classic Trail and the undergrounding of overhead lines around Xintiandi, the quality of road landscape in the region has been improved.
In terms of smart construction, Shanghai's road lighting facilities have achieved data standardization and a sound operation and management mechanism, and innovated the open management of road lighting monitoring. The construction of the integrated pole facility management information platform has realized the management of the entire life cycle of integrated pole facilities.
In terms of innovative measures, Shanghai has used smart lighting control technology to achieve refined control and full-process management in the centralized control and management of landscape lighting. Through these innovative practices, Shanghai's urban lighting is moving towards a more intelligent, green and efficient direction, contributing Shanghai's wisdom and Shanghai solutions to the high-quality development of the urban lighting industry.
Towards a new era of intelligence and greening. With the continuous advancement of technology and the improvement of citizens' requirements for quality of life, Shanghai lighting is moving towards a new era of intelligence and greening. The report proposes important trends in the future development of lighting, including the construction of intelligent lighting systems, the promotion of environmentally friendly lighting technologies, the concept of humanized lighting design, an open lighting data platform, the strengthening of industry collaboration and cross-border integration, the emphasis on cultural heritage and innovation, the promotion of talent training, and the improvement of the policy and regulatory system.
