New research project for smart lighting control

01.12.2023
BREST/NORDDEICH. The aim of the EU-funded “Darker Sky” project is to reduce the impact of artificial light on the North Sea region. NPorts and ten other project partners got together in Brest in September to discuss which measures to implement. NPorts is primarily focused on the Port of Norddeich, where in 2024 the lighting will be replaced with smart LED technology for this project. Comprehensive, intelligent control will also be introduced, so that lighting can be dimmed when it is not needed.
