Every new lamp in Alba Iulia meters its own power. Yet the savings a national agency held up as results are, figure for figure, the targets on the city's own project page.

Alba Iulia is rebuilding its street lighting as LED lamps reporting to a dispatch centre. Three projects from the EU's 2014–2020 regional programme, begun in 2020, cover the centre with the Ampoi and Partoș districts, the Cetate district, and the component villages; by the city's January 2023 count they create 85.56 km of underground network, about 60% of the current system. Every lamp they install is controlled by telemanagement: 1,496 in the centre and Ampoi, 1,222 in Cetate, 1,396 in the villages. The software dims each lamp by time of day, traffic or pedestrians, meters its consumption and raises an alert when it fails, and pedestrian crossings get presence sensors. Day-to-day service is delegated: in January 2023 Flash Lighting Services, on a 2012 contract, still repaired faults on reports from citizens, the city hall or its own checks.

Live 📅 since 2020

📊 Impact

In 2026 the national public procurement agency, ANAP, presented the Cetate project as good practice and reported that primary energy for lighting there fell from 378,052 to 222,721.80 kWh a year, and CO2 from 84.07 to 49.53 tonnes. Those are the specific objectives on the city's own project page, which repeats them under results while still giving the project's status as in implementation; the village project's page follows the same pattern. Neither the agency's summary nor the project pages cite a measurement taken after completion. From 5 August 2026, during a national energy alert, the city said it had cut street-lighting intensity by 20%.

🎓 Lesson

Alba Iulia shows that a lighting upgrade's published result can simply be its target. The savings a national agency held up as proof are the objectives the city wrote into its project page, repeated there as results while the project was still marked as in implementation. The system the city paid for meters every lamp's consumption, so the real figure is cheap to produce; what is missing is a duty to publish it. Cities that fund telemanagement should write a measurement after completion, and who reports it, into the grant and the operator's contract, or the meter becomes a fault alarm rather than evidence.
