What is it about?

The Climate Demand Method (CDM) was applied, and the energy savings achieved by Brazil’s National Efficient Street Lighting Program (ReLuz) in 2005 were calculated, considering the monthly climatology of sunshine duration, disaggregated by a county in Brazil.

Why is it important?

This paper assesses the impacts of climate variability on efficient electricity consumption in street lighting in Brazil.

Perspectives
