Previous engagement of PPC
The top engineering and infrastructure development firm in Nigeria, PPC Limited, has advocated for the use of smart technology in street lighting to increase efficiency and safety in the nation’s cities and towns.
The top engineering and infrastructure development firm in Nigeria, PPC Limited, has advocated for the use of smart technology in street lighting to increase efficiency and safety in the nation’s cities and towns.
He claims that this is the result of the fact that many street lights were built using antiquated components and outmoded technologies, like incandescent bulbs.
According to Onuigbo, smart streetlights are multipurpose, solar-powered to save energy, and equipped with motion sensors for more effective lighting.
Onuigbo highlighted additional advantages of smart lighting: “Smart lighting scan be used to discourage crime by providing an increased level of security in areas that are dimly lit. They can be used to detect human traffic, which can help reduce congestion and improve air quality.”
“Smart lighting can also be used to monitor air quality by providing real-time data on local air quality levels. This data can be used to inform public health decisions in areas with poor air quality.”
“Smart street lighting utilises high-tech sensors and controls to adjust lighting levels based on environmental conditions, motion, and other inputs. PPC believes that smart street lighting is an important tool for improving safety in urban areas.”
In order to maintain major roads and highways secure and safe for both residents and commuters, he also emphasised the necessity of routine repairs and upkeep for street lights across the nation.
He advocated for the replacement of conventional street lighting infrastructure with smart street lighting in order to guarantee road safety and reduce crime.
PPC is dedicated to closing the infrastructure gaps in Nigeria by investing in cutting-edge technologies and forming significant partnerships.
