Project Overview

The Rotterdam municipal road lighting project focused on upgrading existing roadway lighting with a more efficient LED lighting system and intelligent control architecture.

The project used 2,000 sets of 120W LIKELITE LED Street Lights, configured for AC230V / 50Hz operation and supported by professional lighting design and engineering services.

The project scope covered more than fixture supply.

LIKELITE supported the lighting engineering process through:

Onsite Metering → Lighting Design → Simulation → Electrical Layout → Product Supply → Installation Support

The project was designed around three primary objectives:

Improve lighting system efficiency.
Reduce municipal lighting energy consumption.
Introduce more flexible lighting control.

Project Requirements

Municipal roadway lighting upgrades normally need to address existing infrastructure, electrical conditions, lighting distribution, operating schedules, and maintenance requirements at the same time.

For this project, the lighting system was configured around the following requirements:

Efficient LED Replacement

The project specified 120W LED Street Lights with a rated luminous efficiency of 120 lm/W.

Outdoor Protection

The fixtures use an IP65 protection rating for outdoor roadway applications.

Electrical Compatibility

The reference configuration operates at:

AC230V / 50Hz

with 10KV surge protection and 1.5KV voltage resistance specified for the fixture.

European Certification

The project configuration uses CE-certified LED Street Lights.

Intelligent Lighting Control

The project incorporates:

Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

to provide more flexible control of roadway lighting operation.

Long-Term Project Support

A 3-year warranty was specified for the project.


LED Street Light Configuration

120W LIKELITE LED Street Light

The selected fixture combines an aluminum alloy housing with PC optical material.

Optical Configuration

LED Source: Lumileds SMD2835
Luminous Efficiency: 120 lm/W
Beam Angle: 120°
CCT: 5000K ± 500K
CRI: Ra 80

The optical configuration is intended for roadway lighting applications where consistent light distribution and efficient LED performance are required.


Electrical & Protection Configuration

Input Voltage: AC230V
Frequency: 50Hz
Power Supply: AC
Surge Protection: 10KV
Voltage Resistance: 1.5KV
IP Rating: IP65

The electrical configuration was selected for the project's European AC power environment and outdoor municipal roadway application.


Intelligent Lighting Control System

A major part of the project was the integration of three control functions.

Microwave Motion Sensor

Motion detection can be used to respond to movement within the configured detection area.

This provides a control option for roads where traffic activity varies during the night.

Light Control

Light-control functionality can be used to manage operation according to ambient lighting conditions.

Timer Control

Timer-based operation allows lighting schedules to be configured according to municipal operating requirements.

Combined Control

Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

The three functions provide a more flexible operating structure than a simple fixed ON/OFF lighting schedule.

The exact control parameters should be configured according to the final municipal operating strategy.


Engineering Services

The Rotterdam project was supported by a complete lighting engineering workflow.

Onsite Metering

Existing project conditions can be measured and reviewed before finalizing the lighting configuration.

Lighting & Circuitry Design

Lighting positions and electrical circuitry can be coordinated with the roadway infrastructure.

DIALux Evo Layout

DIALux Evo can be used to establish the roadway lighting model and evaluate the proposed lighting arrangement.

Litepro DLX Layout

Litepro DLX layout support is available for projects requiring this design workflow.

AutoCAD Layout

CAD drawings can be prepared for engineering coordination and project implementation.

AGi32 Layout

AGi32-based lighting calculation and layout support can also be provided when required.

Project Installation

Installation support forms part of the project delivery scope according to the agreed project requirements.


Project Implementation

01 — Existing Condition Assessment

The project starts with an understanding of the existing roadway lighting environment.

Key information includes:

  • Existing fixture type

  • Fixture wattage

  • Pole height

  • Pole spacing

  • Road width

  • Electrical supply

  • Operating schedule

  • Existing control method


02 — Lighting Design

The roadway configuration is translated into a lighting model.

The engineering team can use the project road geometry, pole arrangement, fixture optical distribution, mounting height, and operating requirements to establish the proposed layout.


03 — Product Configuration

The final fixture configuration is matched to the project requirements.

For this project:

120W + 120 lm/W + IP65 + Lumileds SMD2835 + 10KV Surge + Intelligent Control


04 — Product Supply

A total of:

2,000 Sets

of LED Street Lights were specified for the project.

The fixtures were configured for:

AC230V / 50Hz

European project requirements.


05 — Installation & Commissioning

Project installation follows the approved lighting and electrical layout.

After installation, the lighting system and control functions can be checked before project handover.


Project Result

Energy-Saving Target: 25%

The Rotterdam project specifies an energy-saving target of 25%.

The potential energy-saving performance of a municipal lighting upgrade depends on:

  • Existing fixture wattage

  • LED replacement wattage

  • Annual operating hours

  • Existing control strategy

  • Motion-sensing settings

  • Timer settings

  • Ambient-light control

  • Actual roadway operating conditions

Therefore, the 25% figure should be treated as the project-specified energy-saving result/target provided for this case, rather than applying it universally to all municipal projects.


Project Technical Result

The project combines:

120W LED Technology

A 120W LED Street Light configuration with 120 lm/W luminous efficiency.

Intelligent Control

Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

Outdoor Protection

IP65

Electrical Protection

10KV Surge Protection

European Electrical Configuration

AC230V / 50Hz

Long-Term Support

3-Year Warranty
