Why Elumia is unique?

01

World-wide patented technology of sequential measurement of street lightning

02

No Radio Frequency (RF) technology

03

Compatible with all existing luminaires, both LED and other older technology

04

Investments are much lower (at least 25%) compared to existing IoT solutions

Elevated security standards

Lower investments and TCO compared to other IoT solutions.

ELUMIA offers a Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) that surpasses existing solutions on the market. Unlike competitors relying on expensive hardware and sensors to connect to luminaires, Elumia utilizes power consumption profiles for monitoring the lighting system’s health. This eliminates the need for additional equipment, reducing costs and the risk of hardware malfunctions.

A comparative evaluation of various technological solutions was conducted to determine the most favorable balance.

Digitalization of the current lighting system, using Elumia solution – the lowest investment.
Digitalization of the current system using CLSM extended module and IoT modules for individual lamp control – at least 25% more expensive.
Digitalization of the current system using IoT modules utilising LoRaWAN and NB-IoT communication technologies for individual lamp control – at least 156% more expensive.
