Municipalities have become increasingly aware of energy costs and environmental issues related to street lighting, which has been a catalyst for growth.
The City of San Diego has passed into law two new smart street programmes with a view to bolstering residents’ security and safety across its communities.
Agreement expedites the path for network operator UScellular to deploy Ericsson Street Radio, a streetlight small cell created in collaboration with Ubicquia.
Analyst finds main driver behind smart pole deployments is the need for cellular network densification in the form of 5G and future 6G small cells and the use of mmWave radio spectrum.
Strategic partners Eco Partnering Innovations, Miller Alliance Group and Ubicquia aim to help transit agencies better manage traffic in the US states of Carolina and Florida.
Ubicquia claims UbiHub is compatible with more than 360 million streetlights worldwide and can be installed in seconds, plugging into the existing streetlight photocell socket.
RealTerm Energy and Ubicquia claim that by converting to LED lights and adding lighting controls, US and Canadian cities reduced energy consumption by 3,721,673 kWh annually.
Ubicquia will use new investment to accelerate growth, facilitate larger supply chain commitments, and manage working capital requirements driven by increasing orders from OEM customers.
The largest 314 cities in the US are converting to LED, according to the Northeast Group, which projects that the country will invest $8.2bn in street light modernisation over the next decade.
