Smart Utilities Projects

Streetlight Controllers
The Office of Innovation and Colorado Springs Utilities tested streetlight controllers which provided information such as energy usage, outages, day burning streetlights, and more. The controllers also allowed for streetlight dimming for energy savings.
For more information on the project, please review the final report.
