Fulda becomes smart: EUR 2.9 million for efficient street lighting

Fulda, Deutschland - Fulda starts the future of the smart city! With fat funding of 2.9 million euros from Hesse, the city modernizes its infrastructure with a revolutionary sensor technology. The new equipment of the street lighting with 688 energy -saving lamps not only ensures more efficient lighting, but also more intelligent traffic flows. In real time, traffic lights are adapted to the traffic volume, which reduces traffic jams and lowers CO2 emissions. In addition, the lighting is dimmed down in low -traffic times - this saves a lot of energy!

The innovation does not end here. Sensor technology is also used in parking space management: sensors are installed on Kurfürstenstraße and at the train station to measure the parking space assignment. A modern parking guidance system is in prospect! The city also optimizes waste disposal with sensors that monitor the level of containers. This means less unnecessary journeys and more efficient disposal. With all of these measures, Fulda shows how digitization not only increases the quality of life, but also makes a huge contribution to climate protection. More on this at www.fuldainfo.de .
