Smart Public Lighting: Understanding, Deploying, and Optimizing Urban Networks

Smart public lighting has become an essential strategic lever for local authorities seeking to sustainably reduce costs while improving service quality.
In a context where budgets are under pressure and energy prices continue to rise, many municipalities are facing a simple reality...

Supervision: The Key to Smart Public Lighting

Within a Smart City strategy, supervision is the central element that transforms a conventional electrical network into a smart public lighting system. Without supervision, streetlights operate autonomously; with it, they become a connected network, capable of reacting in real-time to the city's needs.
Supervision acts as a control tower for the Smart City. It does more than just turn streetlights...

Public Lighting ROI: A strategic and subsidized investment in 2026?

In a context of pressure on local finances and volatile energy prices, modernizing urban infrastructure is no longer just about compliance, it has become a true strategy for budget preservation. Public lighting, which represents on average 37% of municipalities’ electricity bills...

IoT for Smart Public Lighting: A Revolution Across Territories

The integration of IoT into smart public lighting is no longer just a technological option for local authorities; it has become the primary lever for their energy sovereignty. Faced with soaring electricity prices and the demands of ecological transition, municipalities must transform their passive networks into dynamic systems. By leveraging the Internet of Things (IoT), every streetlight becomes a strategic asset capable of...

Smart Public Lighting Remote Management: Driving Urban Energy Performance

As part of a comprehensive smart public lighting strategy, remote management is the essential operational building block. For energy syndicates and operators, it is the ultimate control tool to transform a passive electrical network into a responsive and energy-efficient infrastructure. At a time when energy costs are reaching record highs...

Smart public lighting: from control at the electrical cabinet to the light points

Smart public lighting is no longer a technological utopia: it is a major lever for energy transition for local authorities. Thanks to connectivity, it is now possible to optimise consumption, reduce maintenance costs and improve residents' comfort.
Two complementary approaches work together: cabinet-level control with BH Technologies’ Radiolite...

Socio-astronomical calculation: an invention by BH Technologies

Socio-astronomical calculation is an exclusive innovation from BH Technologies. It is the result of patented expertise that is revolutionising Public lighting management. Designed to light up at just the right moment, it combines scientific rigour with a sense of urban comfort. A precise socio-astronomical calculation, intelligent and patented. At BH Technologies, we don't

Radio time synchronisation, a major advantage for modern public lighting

In a world where every minute counts, radio time synchronisation is a key solution for ensuring a precise public lighting, consistent and economical. This technology enables all clocks in a lighting networkto remain perfectly aligned with a reliable time reference, without drift or deviation. In practical terms, radio synchronisation devices...

Radiolite astronomical clock: intelligence at the heart of public lighting cabinets

In public lighting cabinets, every component counts. The astronomical clock, often discreet, nevertheless plays an essential role: it controls the switching on and off of the lights according to the actual position of the sun. With its Radiolite range, BH Technologies has designed robust, accurate and durable astronomical clocks...

Programming: the cornerstone of effective public lighting

Behind every light or astronomical clock that turns on at the right moment lies sophisticated programming that is almost invisible but essential. It orchestrates the lighting, anticipates needs and ensures that the city is lit at just the right time, neither too early nor too late. Thanks to tools such as Luce App or...

How to reduce public lighting maintenance costs with IoT solutions

Public lighting represents a considerable expense for local authorities. Between maintenance costs, energy consumption and intervention management, the bill can quickly weigh heavily on the municipal budget. Today, IoT technologies offer a concrete solution for...

Public lighting supervision: optimize operations

Supervision transforms public lighting management for local authorities. It enables remote control of lighting fixtures and electrical cabinets, while reducing energy and maintenance costs. Thanks to BH Technologies' solutions, local authorities can accurately programme lighting switch-on...

Electrical Cabinet for Public Lighting: Design, Safety and Intelligent Remote Management

The public lighting electrical cabinet is the operational heart of an urban lighting network. It no longer simply distributes electricity to lamp posts. Today, it protects installations, controls switching cycles, and integrates with remote management systems. In a context where local authorities must reduce ...

Public lighting: choosing between electrical cabinet or light point management

Effectively managing public lighting is a major challenge for local authorities, both in terms of ensuring public safety and meeting the requirements of the energy transition. Faced with these challenges, managers have two main methods at their disposal: centralised management via an electrical cabinet and/or individual control at each light point...

Radiolite: how to choose the most suitable model for your public lighting?

When we talk about Radiolite, we’re talking about an entire family of astronomical time switches designed to control public lighting with precision… but also with personality. Each model has its own temperament, strengths, interfaces, and option sets. In short: a small universe, and it’s best to... The first steps: Radiolite 110 and 120...

Astronomical clock: control public lighting efficiently

The astronomical clock is a key tool for local authorities, automatically controlling public lighting according to the natural cycles of the sun. A precise clock, such as those from BH Technologies, reduces energy costs, improves service quality and makes interventions safer, while offering real energy efficiency benefits. This guide explains how it works, its advantages and best practices for integrating it into your...

Regulation and variation: the key to reliable and sustainable public lighting

When night falls on a city, its brightness does not depend solely on streetlights. Behind the light, there is often an unstable electrical current. And that is where regulation variation enters the stage: discreet, yet essential. This technology, at the heart of BH Technologies solutions, acts as an invisible conductor, ensuring stability, longevity and energy efficiency.
