Public Lighting conference heads for Sydney

The Public Lighting conference is heading for Sydney, with organisers advising the event will run 2–3 November 2016.

The conference will focus on developing lighting infrastructure as an energy-efficient platform for smart city development. It will also broaden its scope to include all public lighting, such as parks, sports fields, car parking, sporting complexes, and safety and security lighting.

Announced by the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA), together with management consultancy Strategic Lighting Partners, the conference builds off two Road Lighting conferences held in Auckland from 2014 to 2015, which introduced almost 500 public lighting sector attendees to the advantages of LED street lighting.

The 2016 Sydney conference will feature an international line-up of speakers to examine how cities are joining the ‘LED revolution’ not only to improve energy efficiency, reduce costs and improve road safety, but also to move towards the ‘smart city’ concept — an electronically controlled, efficient, digital lighting infrastructure that can be adapted to respond to prevailing traffic and weather conditions and that can be used as ‘real estate’ for mobile networks and other income-generating services through smart control systems.
