2 Maintenance Cost Savings
Feedback of information through central monitoring enables maintenance schedules to be optimised, leading to fewer site visits and lower travel overheads.

Reduced CO2 Emissions
The generation of electrical energy required for lighting is a major contributor to CO2 emissions (1 kWh of energy = 0.42kg of CO2). The most energy consumption by the product is clearly during operation and much of this can be reduced by Telea. Indeed, Europe could save 3.5 million tonnes of CO2 by switching to energy efficient street lighting.

Remote monitoring through the Central Management Entrance (CME)
The CME software enables total control and monitoring of Telea outdoor lighting facilities.

Though the Telea system is autonomous at field level with Comboxes and Luminaire Controllers, the CME Server provides the real interface for the user, with a complete intuitive tool for day-to-day maintenance facility. An operator at a desktop PC can control all streetlights in the city and access any error messages to trigger required action.

The CME has a user friendly interface. Its helpful screens allow operators to configure their installation, obtain information and monitor performance. Additionally, the CME provides intelligent reporting and allows operators to implement reactive and efficient decisions. Finally, lighting management is sometimes combined with other facilities systems; the CME provides open interface possibilities for enhanced integration.
