Powering Smart City Streetlights

Smart streetlights require a highly adaptable and versatile AC input range of 90 to 528 Vac, which allows them to draw power from a wide variety of infrastructure power sources, including traditional power grids and renewable energy systems. This flexibility is crucial for maintaining a steady power supply, ensuring precise regulation, and achieving optimal efficiency in diverse urban environments. Furthermore, these streetlights are engineered to endure continuous operation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They are typically housed in a sealed environment, which is designed to protect the internal components from external elements such as dust, moisture, and pollutants. This enclosure must also be capable of withstanding high ambient temperatures that can reach up to +80 degrees Celsius, all without the benefit of airflow or external venting systems. This robust design ensures that the streetlights can function reliably and efficiently, even in the most challenging and demanding conditions, thereby supporting the seamless operation of smart city infrastructure.
