The project provides for the hiring of local labor for the maintenance and installation, thus contributing to regional development and creating jobs in the area.
In Los Alcazares renovating 6,482 points of light will be performed, representing 85% of total installed.
This change is estimated to reduce emissions of 386 tons of CO2 per year will occur.
Endesa and Enel Sole they have been awarded the contract for the management of street lighting in the municipality of Los Alcazares, in the form of energy service company.
The contract includes both successful bidders made the necessary investment for technological renewal of street lighting and, in turn, be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the service over the next 15 years.
In this sense, Endesa and Enel Sole made in 2014 the renewal of 6,482 points of light, representing 85% of total installed.
In total 1,884 luminaries Archiled technology (25% of the total) will be installed.
In turn, this change of lighting means savings of 33% of the total installed capacity and a more than 43% in energy consumption.
It is also deemed that a reduction in emissions of 386 tons of CO2 per year will occur.
As part of the project, local labor will be hired to perform maintenance work and installation, thus contributing to regional development and boosting the activity of SMEs in the locality.
Like other municipalities that are managed jointly ESE (Energy Service Company), Los Alcazares project will be monitored from the Smart Grid Service Center, Service Center for Endesa smart cities located in Seville.
From this control center is managed and monitored, in addition to efficient lighting projects, charging infrastructure for electric vehicles installed by Enel and Endesa in Spain to date.
Likewise, experiments with micro networks, and analyze and test new services for the cities of tomorrow.
The technology promoted by Enel and Endesa Sole is based on the use of efficient lamps with intelligent control of each light.
This quality of light is increased, and considerable energy savings occurs.
Also, the average useful life of the lamps increases exceeding 60,000 hours and gain flexibility to be programmed each point light independently.
For municipalities these projects result in increased efficiency, reduced CO2 emissions and improved availability of lighting infrastructure to detect faults in real time.
In this sense, the local population increases living comfort in sustainably managed environments and higher quality.
