• <1% lights are networked
• Munis & Businesses often outsource lighting management to Utility or Lighting Operator
Market Trends & Growth Drivers • LEDs are replacing HPS lights due to 50%+ EE and 3x life
• LED reliability is now proven, price is dropping rapidly - encouraging deployment
• LEDs provide compelling emergency and public safety applications.
• Concept of Networked LEDs is gaining acceptance
• Networked communications cost is dropping rapidly due to scale from Smart Grid
• ESCO packages are funding the replacement of the LED lights – either through EE riders
or financing
• “Smart City” provides a political impetus for cities to leverage technology infrastructure to
improve citizen services Source: Pike / Navigant report “Smart Street Lighting” 4Q12

We grew up in the Smart Grid market.
That taught us to think about networks
horizontally –
a platform on which vertical, specific
applications could reside.
Only then did the business case get really
compelling.

Can’t Mobile Networks Do That?
While
mobile operator technologies
have provided
increased coverage and data rates
for users of expensive smart phones …
… the missing piece
to the puzzle
has been
cost-effective
and
ubiquitous
Machine-to-Machine "dial tone"
