Cambodia’s Ministry of the Environment awarded MinebeaMitsumi for its high efficiency LED street light implementation project in the Phnom Penh city area.

The award recognises the significant contribution to reduced electric power use and increased efficiency, as well as to improved environmental sustainability. By switching to LED lighting with wireless dimming control, the MinebeaMitsumi solution realised a reduction of approximately 70 per cent of greenhouse gas emissions as compared to the conventional high intensity discharge lighting. The project is based on Paradox Engineering’s wireless network technology.

Besides smart lighting, MinebeaMitsumi is aiming to construct a system capable of bulk monitoring of various urban lifestyle functions such as parking sensors, electricity meters, surveillance cameras, etc.
