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 optimising maintenance and reducing costs while improving the quality of public services. Let's find out how solutions such as our BH Nodes, for example, can help achieve this.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

According toAdeme<\/a>, maintenance and energy account for up to 50% of a municipality's energy budget. The main causes are costly corrective interventions, a lack of accurate monitoring of equipment, and a lack of visibility on the condition of the fleet. Each round requires staff, time and fuel, increasing maintenance costs. In a context of budgetary constraints, optimising maintenance becomes a priority.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Sensors and communication nodes: a significant reduction in maintenance costs<\/h3>\n\"BHThe IoT connects every light point to a smart network.
The communicating nodes continuously measure operating status, consumption and electrical temperature.
Let us take the example our BH Nodes<\/a>, developed by BH Technologies: installed in each light fixture, they automatically send data to a centralised platform.
In the event of an anomaly, an alert is sent instantly. The result: no more unnecessary rounds, teams only intervene when necessary.\n

Remote management and automation: fewer interventions, greater responsiveness<\/h3>\n\"LuceWith remote management<\/a>, local authorities can control their lighting remotely: switching lights on and off, adjusting brightness, or scheduling lighting according to footfall.
This automation reduces travel and increases responsiveness to incidents.
The data collected reveals trends and helps to anticipate failures.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Equipment connectivity and compatibility<\/h3>\nAn IoT project relies on reliable connectivity (LoRa, Zigbee, NB-IoT) and interoperable equipment. It is essential to choose an open solution that is compatible with existing hardware.\n

Data security and network reliability<<\/h3>\nCybersecurity is a major issue: data from sensors must be secured to prevent intrusion. Suppliers must guarantee network redundancy and data confidentiality.\n

Choosing an experienced partner<\/h3>\nWith nearly 30 years of experience, BH Technologies<\/strong> supports local authorities with integration, maintenance and training.
Expertise that makes a difference in the field.\n

From reactive maintenance to predictive maintenance<\/h3>\nThanks to data from IoT sensors, local authorities are moving from reactive maintenance to predictive maintenance<\/strong>.
Algorithms anticipate failures before they occur, reducing costs and extending equipment life.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
