Conclusions Nowadays, the generalization of LED luminaires has meant a new technological revolution within this segment of products. PV LED lighting installations are now positioned as an efficient technology and an economically viable option to cover the needs of street lighting inside cities.
Finally, from the study of social viability, it is concluded that the majority of the population is aware of the problem in the conduction of electricity and, in turn, 89% consider it a sustainable and adequate solution that the lighting installation is renewed being supplied exclusively by photovoltaic solar energy.
On the other hand, the economic feasibility study provides the most significant results, determining that it is 44% more viable to carry out a PV LED lighting installation with respect to an LED lighting installation connected to the alternating current grid and adapted to the current regulations through underground channeling.
In general, most subjects of all age segments are aware of the problem that means having aerial wiring running at facades (95%) and considers the use of PV in urban lighting sustainable (88%). However, 47% of those surveyed consider that shutdowns due to lack of energy harvesting is problematic and 17% consider this very problematic.
A total 88% of the subjects consider a sustainable and adequate solution to renew the installation of urban lighting, and that the new installation is powered exclusively by PV energy. At first glance, there are no relevant differences considering different segments of ages.
Secondly, after a technical feasibility study in which a lighting installation powered by photovoltaic solar energy was dimensioned to satisfy the same requirements as the reference installation, a final budget of 184,989.95 € was determined for a total of 99 LED solar lights according to the simulations.
