Challenges Elumia solves

  • Operational inefficiencies: Insufficient data for lamp fault detection leads to high costs and delays due to manual inspections.
  • Limited visibility and inefficient maintenance: Verifying citizen reports is time-consuming and costly without digital tools.
  • Data blindspot: Lack of reliable and daily updated data hinders proactive maintenance and performance optimization. You can’t see the full picture of your lighting infrastructure’s health.
  • Hidden costs: Conventional monitoring often overlooks energy theft, silently draining operational budgets.
  • Investment constraints: Selecting the right technology, ROI calculations, accompanied by high cost of IoT solutions.
  • Compliance with standards and energy requirements: Elumia’s MID-certified controllers provide reliable data for energy inspection, ensuring compliance with standards.

About Elumia

Elumia complements existing IoT solutions, which typically connect only a small portion of a city’s luminaires—currently, only about 5% of lights are smart. While IoT solutions offer advanced features like real-time individual lamp control, they come with high costs and complex technical components, making it difficult to justify ROI.

Elumia is the ideal solution for covering the remaining 95% of lights. It provides comprehensive operational status monitoring at a significantly lower cost and can easily be upgraded when customers are ready for full IoT integration.

CLSM algorithm

Elumia’s patented CLSM algorithm sequentially activates luminaires and monitors their power consumption.
If a luminaire is functioning properly, its power usage increases upon activation.

If a luminaire is functioning properly, its power usage increases upon activation.

If it is faulty, its power remains unchanged. By analyzing power profiles over time, Elumia can accurately and cost-effectively detect malfunctions.

Elumia benefits

Low investment costs

  • At least 33% TCO savings compared to other IoT solutions.
