Background information
The city of Jyväskylä has been a customer of C2 SmartLight Oy since 2010. Our cooperation started when the city decided to update its outdoor lighting control system and chose C2 as its supplier. This decision has borne fruit and led to significant energy savings and improved lighting management.
Current situation
In 2022, the city of Jyväskylä tendered the outdoor lighting control system and chose C2 as the system supplier again. The new, more advanced control system has been introduced in stages and is designed to serve the city's needs well into the 2030s.
There are about 35,000 lights in the lighting network managed by the city, of which about half will be LED light sources in 2024. The big investments in recent years in more energy-efficient LED technology will be continued so that everyone will be LED technology well before the end of the decade. This requires the replacement of around 18,000 lamps or light sources.
A vision of the future
The city of Jyväskylä's outdoor lighting investments are now at a record level. The new control system and related investments pay for themselves even faster in reduced electricity bills and savings in lighting maintenance. In addition, intelligently controlled LED lighting improves the quality of light, reduces light pollution, increases coziness and strengthens Jyväskylä's brand as the "City of Light".
Situational awareness system
The city of Jyväskylä has developed a situational awareness system tool for managing outdoor lighting maintenance and investments, which C2 SmartLight Oy was selected as the further developer through a competition. This tool improves the profitability of investments and maintenance, manages repair debt and speeds up the planning process. It also improves the flow of information between different parties and enables more cost-effective operations.

The cooperation continues
The cooperation between the city of Jyväskylä and C2 SmartLight Oy is an excellent example of how a long-term partnership and continuous development work can produce significant benefits for both parties. Together, we will continue to develop lighting and strive to offer even more efficient and environmentally friendly solutions in the future.
