    Análisis de eficiencia energética del alumbrado público en el sector El Girón en la ciudad de Quito
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2014) Pozo G., José P.; Universidad de Cuenca; Dirección de Investigación de la Universidad de Cuenca
    Light pollution is all-sky brightness caused by diffuse scattering of artificial light. On the premise that all generations have the right to unaffected land and sky an analysis was performed of the energy efficiency of public light installations, involving the measurement in situ of lighting parameters and the determination of lighting levels, preparing tables between what is required and what was measured. The research was facilitated by the design software company Ulysse v2.3 Schréder, and the data provided by the Empresa Eléctrica Quito. The study revealed the existence of energy "waste" values, being the result of 22% unutilized energy, resulting in economic and environmental costs. The latter was assessed as the equivalent to spilled oil, as to obtain a measure equivalent to the quantity of emitted greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. This analysis took into consideration the demographic conditions in the sector, urban factors and possible effects on flora, fauna and humans.

    Viabilidad económica del control de la iluminación fotovoltaica en autopistas del Ecuador
    (Universidad de Cuenca, 2014) Vargas, Carlos; Guevara, David; Ríos, Alberto; Universidad de Cuenca; Dirección de Investigación de la Universidad de Cuenca
    A most critical problem of highways is the high energy consumption associated with the lighting systems. The development of innovative control systems and the integration of renewable power generation systems in lighting systems allow for significant energy savings in highways. The Government of Ecuador has launched an ambitious project to build new highways throughout the country. The practical implementation of intelligent control lighting photovoltaic systems involves considerable energy savings and use of renewable and inexhaustible resource in the future highway network of Ecuador. In this paper, the features of so-called intelligent highways and innovative techniques for the control of lighting systems are described. Also, an introductory assessment of the potential impact on reducing the power consumption is presented.
