• Energy metering
• Light scheduling
Copenhagen
• 20.000 LED Luminaires
• Benefits:
• Save 65% reduced
• Create a Smart City
network
Glasgow
• Pilot site with extensions in
2015
• Benefits:
• Reduced energy
• Safer road junctions
• Deploy city sensors
Paris
• 16.000 ON/OFF Switch
• Potential 180.000 light points
• Benefits:
• Save 30% over 10 years
• Identify failures rapidly
• Generate revenue on the
SSN Smart City Network
• Use SSN network for
Traffic Control Monitoring

6. Smart City Architectures Need a Platform Basis
We know the rise of IoT has begun
– Large array of disparate devices
– Several network transport options
– A tsunami of data
– Ever-growing ecosystem of applications

7. Think About the Network…
Networking characteristics:
• Throughput (bps to Mbps)
• Payload size (bytes to
Mbytes)
• Latency (minutes, hours, days
to msec)
And also in economic terms:
• Cost (CAPEX and OPEX to
pure as-a-Service)
• Coverage of end-sensors
(from, say, 95% to 99.9%)
• Reliability (retries over hours,
days to QoS)
8. The Choice of Platform Matters
While
mobile operator technologies
have provided
increased coverage and data rates
for users of expensive smart
phones …
… the missing piece
to the IoT and Smart City puzzle
has been
cost-effective
and
ubiquitous
IoT-tone
to millions
of sensors and
devices

* 2011 figures
• Lighting stock of more than 500,000 lights
• Some infrastructure dates from the 1920s
• Organic growth and lack of strict record-
keeping means maintenance and
operational headaches
• Lights in territory also owned by private
entities, municipalities …
• Energy reduction by using LEDs or
dimming not currently high on the agenda
11. South-East Florida: Network Coverage Map
From 75,000 street lights in pilot
phase with SSN …
… to nearly 500,000 street lights
across its 35-county service
territory statewide
World’s largest announced
networked lighting program
12. Miami-Dade County – Testing Ground
• Home to 2.5M people in 4500 sqkm –
considered a “World City” like
Copenhagen, Paris, Singapore, etc.
• Terrain varies from dense urban
(Brickell) to wilderness (Everglades)
• FPL serves almost all of the county
• Approx. 75,000 lights to network –
leading to world’s largest networked
lighting project when successful
13. Street Light Control Architecture to Manage World’s Largest
Networked Lighting Project

Internet
Light Operator Station
• Secure web connection
• Full management of system
• Full access to data
StreetLight.Vision CMS
• Full Security Management
• Seamless Upgrades
• Robust functionality
Network from Silver Spring
• Photocell to Datacenter
connectivity via IPv6
• Connection guarantees
• Photocell Firmware upgrades
Networked Photocell (variety of vendors)
• C136.41 5/7-PIN NEMA
• Long-life (1/5/10 year warranty)
• 2%,1%,.5% energy accuracy
14. How Does Street Lighting Fit with Smart City & the IoT?
Intersection of three crucial trends
Moore’s Law (Semiconductors)
Metcalfe’s Law (Networked Device Value)
Truly Big Data
15. FPL’s Platform Vision Guides Its Choices
Incumbency
&
Scale
More customer engagement
and empowerment is key to
loyalty and satisfaction
Ability to deliver city services
more efficiently an in a
coordinated way
Ownership of poles, wires, right-
of-way is a critical asset for
deploying IoT
Experience delivering
real/physical world services
is a big advantage
Proven returns to core
business from deploying core
platform
Platform facilitates low
marginal cost to add devices,
apps, services to create new
revenue streams
