An eco-district (or eco-neighbourhood) is an urban area designed with sustainable development in mind, with the aim of reducing the ecological footprint and improving the quality of life of its residents. It incorporates innovative solutions in terms of urban planning, energy management, mobility and respect for biodiversity. These neighbourhoods are designed to be models of sustainability, promoting environmentally-friendly lifestyles and rational use of resources.
Low environmental impact LED beacons
The application of LED beacons, solar studs and illuminated safety signs is particularly relevant to eco-neighbourhoods. These innovative solutions help to address environmental and safety issues while integrating harmoniously into the urban landscape. LED beacons and solar-powered studs, with zero electricity consumption from solar power or low consumption from extra-low voltage (ELV) power, are relevant solutions for sustainable energy management. With a low environmental impact, they provide effective, safe and aesthetically pleasing signage.
Sustainable lighting that respects biodiversity
The installation of these systems in eco-districts also helps to reduce light pollution, thanks to grazing and programmable beaconing for certain models, respecting the dark infrastructure ecological framework. This approach limits the amount of light emitted into the sky, preserving the quality of the night sky and respecting the natural cycles of local ecosystems. The warm colours used in these systems benefit biodiversity by limiting disturbance to nocturnal fauna. In addition, the possibility of creating a unique lighting signature and the use of dynamic modes offer opportunities to embellish urban spaces, while making pedestrian and cycle routes safer and more pleasant.
