Light has an impact on 9 of 17 UN sustainability goals

LichtWART: Intelligent lighting to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals

The United Nations has set 17 ambitious Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to create a more sustainable and equitable world by 2030. LichtWART, an innovative lighting management solution, can help companies achieve several of these goals.

Goal 3: Health and well-being

Health and well-being (SDG 3) are of crucial importance for sustainable development. LichtWART enables better lighting in urban and rural areas. By intelligently controlling lighting systems, it creates a safer and healthier environment for residents. Well-lit streets and public spaces help to reduce accidents and crime, which improves people’s quality of life.

Goal 7: Affordable and clean energy

Affordable and clean energy (SDG 7) is critical to meeting global energy needs while minimizing environmental impacts. LichtWART helps to reduce energy consumption by making lighting systems more efficient. This leads to significant energy savings and helps companies make their contribution to clean energy supply.

Goal 8: Decent work and economic growth

Decent work and economic growth (SDG 8) are interlinked. LichtWART supports companies in reducing their operating costs and working more efficiently. By reducing energy costs and improving lighting efficiency, it contributes to economic profitability. At the same time, it creates opportunities for job creation in the sustainable technology sector.

Goal 9: Industry, innovation and infrastructure

Industry, innovation and infrastructure (SDG 9) are key drivers of economic growth. LichtWART is an example of innovative technology that can be integrated into existing infrastructures. With its IoT-driven platform and intelligent control systems, it contributes to the modernization of lighting infrastructures and promotes innovative approaches to resource efficiency.

Goal 11: Sustainable cities and communities

Sustainable cities and communities (SDG 11) are crucial for the future of our planet. LichtWART enables sustainable lighting in urban areas. By reducing light pollution and using resources efficiently, it contributes to creating more liveable and sustainable cities.

Goal 12: Responsible consumption and production

Responsible consumption and production (SDG 12) are key factors for a sustainable future. LichtWART promotes resource-efficient lighting solutions. It helps to reduce the consumption of resources by extending the lifespan of LED lighting and reducing the need for spare parts.

Goal 13: Climate action

Climate action (SDG 13) is urgently needed to mitigate climate change. LichtWART reduces energy consumption and CO₂ emissions by improving lighting efficiency. This helps to reduce the ecological footprint of companies and communities.

Goal 14: Life below water

Goal 14 (SDG 14) focuses on the protection of oceans and marine resources. LichtWART contributes to the reduction of light pollution in coastal areas, which helps to protect the marine environment and biodiversity.

Goal 15: Life on land

Life on land (SDG 15) is closely linked to the conservation of biodiversity and combating desertification and land degradation. LichtWART supports the protection of biodiversity by reducing light pollution and promoting environmental sustainability.

Conclusion

Overall, the use of LichtWART shows how innovative technologies can help companies and communities build a sustainable future and achieve the United Nations’ goals. This is an example of how intelligent lighting systems can make a positive contribution to sustainable development.
