Quality of light
Light distribution, uniformity and glare control are evaluated in relation to the spaces and users, with attention to the dispersion of light and the surrounding context.
TèKHNE / SERVICES
Efficiency in the service
of communities.
We support public authorities in the analysis, design and planning of public lighting interventions, with attention to the quality of the service and costs over time.
Redeveloping public lighting means reading together spaces, systems and methods of use. Roads, crossings, pedestrian paths and squares require specific assessments: just replacing the devices does not complete the project.
We start from knowledge of the assets and needs to compare the alternatives, define investment priorities and accompany the Administration's choices. Energy efficiency integrates with the quality of light, maintenance and continuity of service.
Consumption and regulation
Efficient luminaires, adequate optics and operating profiles consistent with the project help reduce energy waste, maintaining the required performance.
Management over time
Accessibility of components, maintenance and availability of data contribute to building a manageable system, as well as efficient at the time of installation.
02 / THE PATH
From existing assets
to the intervention plan.
The support is defined on the scope of the assignment, on the information available and on the priorities of the institution.
Inventory and analysis
We collect data on light points, appliances, supports, panels and switching modes. Consumption, maintenance and critical issues reported help to reconstruct the initial picture and the additional information needed.
Scenarios and feasibility
We compare equipment redevelopment, lighting control and possible control systems. Investments, expected savings and management costs are read together, with respect to the performances to be guaranteed.
Solutions and documents
We connect energy assessments to lighting and system design. Technical support for assignments helps to define requirements, performances and verification criteria consistent with the objectives.
Performance and management
We define the references to read consumption and operation after the intervention. Measurements and management data, according to the assignment, help compare the results with the project hypotheses.
03 / THE CHOICES THAT COUNT
An efficient project.
A service to manage.
Technologies acquire value when they respond to the needs of the territory. Each solution must be evaluated for compatibility, expected benefits and economic sustainability.
Feasibility and tender support ↗LED and light distribution
The choice considers optics, power and characteristics of the light as a function of the area. Better lighting means directing the flow where it is needed, avoiding oversizing and dispersions.
Regulation and remote control
Planned flow reduction, time control and fault reporting can improve management. The opportunity is evaluated with respect to the network, lighting categories, costs and operational capabilities of the institution.
Life cycle costs
In addition to purchase, we consider energy, maintenance and replacements. The comparison between scenarios makes the investment conditions and the resources necessary to maintain the service clearer.
04 / THE EXPERIENCE IN THE TERRITORY
Five municipalities.
Different contexts, a common goal.
TèKHNE has developed and implemented public lighting efficiency projects for five municipal administrations. The dedicated page presents the territories and the intervention path.
- Flumers
- Capriglia Irpina
- Sarno
- Athena Lucana
- Villa di Briano
05 / RULES AND CRITERIA
Performance defined.
Clear references.
The design choices consider the technical standards, the applicable environmental criteria and the regional and local provisions on the containment of light pollution.
UNI 11248 and UNI EN 13201 series
UNI 11248 guides the selection of lighting categories through risk analysis. The UNI EN 13201 series deals with performance requirements, calculation and verification of street lighting performance.

The Minimum Environmental Criteria concern the acquisition of sources and devices for public lighting and the assignment of the system design service.
