~. ENVIRONMENTAL The 97 million streetlights in Europe consume over 68 terawatt-hours of electricity annually. Huge reductions

in GHG emissions can be realized with intelligent streetlights.

iiiii SOCIAL Intelligent streetlights improve public safety and reduce light pollution.

Tv ilight combines hard wa re, a tin y intelligent m od ule that includes sensors, wireless communication, and a dimmer that can be installed o n any existing dimmable streetlight, and advanced softwa re that co ntro ls streetlights, m o nito rs electricity usage, and analyzes traffi c data. The system detects human occupancy to control the light intensity in an area . The light s dim during o ff-peak ho urs, but w hen a unit detects a pedestrian , bicycle, o r automobile, the surro unding light s return t o full brightness. W hy a SustainialOO solution? Millions of streetlights burn all night, even when there is no human activity in the area. Tvilight estimates that the Netherlands alone pays over $390 million annually on st reet lighting electricity, with C02 emissions of 1.6 million tons. Tvilight's intelligent st reetlight s reduce electricity consumption and maintenance costs by up to 80% and 50% respectively, without compromising public safety.

ECONOMIC Europe's 97 million streetlights consume over $73 billion in electricity annually.
