Energy efficient lighting is designed to optimize the energy consumption for street lighting. This system aims to reduce energy consumption through designing a Smart lighting control system using a microcontroller. Lighting alone accounts for approximately 20% of the global electricity consumption of a day. In the current scenario, public lightings are usually turned on before the sunset and turned off after the sunrise where visibility is sufficient. Sensory network including infrared sensor, temperature sensor, light sensors are used for real time vehicular detection and light monitoring, programmable displays, alert system and a RTC dimming scheduling, notification and measurements are implemented. The microcontroller to governs the operations of the street Lighting system. Evaluation shows that it allows more energy and cost saving in street lighting.
