Three phenomena are related to light control of luminaires and their installation
Glare
All are the result of waste of energy
Obtrusive light Sky glow

SOLUTION: No light at all ?
As it has to do with safety of drivers and pedestrians – just let us say, for PEOPLE
Road lighting is necessary Lighting of working places is necessary
Sports lighting is a social topic

Road Lighting EN 13201 & O 1051
FINDING THE RIGHT APPLICATION RATE (To comply with the Standards)
Sports Lighting EN 12193
Working places EN 12464
Effect lighting (O 1052 & RVS & LiTG recommendations)

FINDING THE RIGHT APPLICATION RATE
BUT NOT OVERLIGHT
Fulfill the Standard
Exact lighting design
Use the informations needed for lighting designto talk with the customer

FINDING THE RIGHT APPLICATION RATE
Work together with road-designer
Implement the needs for lower lighting levels
Find the best luminaire and the best design for this project

OTHER POSSIBILITIESTO BE DISCUSSED
Road lighting increases security
The better the comfort, the safer is traffic
Increasing comfort is not meaning increasing lighting levels!
![Page 9: LIGHTING vs DARK SKY](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56814cee550346895db9ecf1/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Example:
OTHER POSSIBILITIESTO BE DISCUSSED
Road lighting with Class ME3cneeds 1cd; Uo > 40%; Ul > 50%; TI < 15%
Better comfort with 0,75cd; Ul > 70%; TI < 10%
Better comfort = better visibility = better, safer traffic

WHAT HAS TO BE DONE
Research about the influence of uniformity, TI and Luminance to get the correlations
This sounds perfect and this is the target that we shall follow
Implementation of the results into the standards
Better comfort + lower light levels + less Sky glow

WHAT IS GOING ON AT THE MOMENT
Development of the new Standard for Light Pollutionin Austria – the O 1052 « Lichtimmissionen »
Involved people:Lighting engineers Traffic engineers Astronomers Biologists
Ecologists
Physicians (med)
Environmental protection officers from provincial governments
People from test and experimental station (Laboratory)

WHAT WE HAVE SEEN SO FAR
Development of the new Standard for Light Pollutionshows a lot of problems to be taken into account
It is more than just looking at luminaire-design
![Page 13: LIGHTING vs DARK SKY](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062305/56814cee550346895db9ecf1/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
WHAT WE HAVE DONE SO FAR
Development of new reflectors straight on with flat glass with higher performance
We use all availlable technologies to keep maintenance factors as low as possible so overlighting of new installations is not necessary

A LOOK INTO THE FUTURE
Lighting engineers (and industry if necessary) shall be involved into projects much earlier.
The seminars for lighting designers are a step in the right direction.
Good lighting design can improve all aspectsabout safety and light pollution.

FACADE & EFFECT LIGHTING
Needs exact design to prevent spill light
« Rethinking » needed often is less moreAwareness shall be strengthened
Problem: it is nearly impossible to do exact designjust « on the paper »

RETHINKING HAS STARTED
As example: Masterplan Licht in Vienna
A lot of flat glass products
Aim to reduce power consumption
