LaaS gif

LaaS enables large-scale
deployments, without the
typical barrier of cost, so cities
can start saving sooner.

Citywide Smart Lighting Upgrade Philadelphia initiated a transformative lighting project to cut O&M costs by 50% and save a projected $200M

Mid-Size Utility Rollout Memphis Light, Gas and Water cut truck rolls in half with UbiCell’s remote diagnostic capabilities

What is LaaS and how does it work?

Lighting-as-a-Service lets cities deploy smart lighting with no upfront cost, often paying the monthly service fee with operational savings.

What makes a streetlight “smart”?

Real-time alerts, controls, and analytics allow cities to operate and maintain their lighting network more efficiently. Intelligent scheduling and dimming reduces energy use, cuts carbon emissions, improves public safety, and can protect dark skies. Visibility into light status pinpoints the location and source of outages to minimize truck rolls. Greater control over load assets improves grid resiliency.

How do Ubicquia’s lighting controls differ from other providers?

Ubicquia’s UbiCell and the embedded controls in the UbiHub are built to utility-grade standards. This includes the ability to monitor power quality, protect against surges, and offer last gasp notices on downed poles. These features allow cities and utilities to diagnose issues remotely, reduce truck rolls, improve lighting reliability, and minimize light pollution.

We’ve worked on some of the largest projects in the US and have seen almost every lighting issue you can imagine and have experience dealing with it.

Does Ubicquia have large-scale deployments in big cities?

Ubicquia is deployed in over 800 cities across North America, including 6 of the 15 largest cities in the US and owns an 80% market share of LTE controls.
