The authors of the presented research conclude that urban photovoltaic public lighting installations are technically, economically, and socially viable by virtue of the results obtained.
On the other hand, the economic feasibility study provides the most significant results, determining that it is 44% more viable to carry out a PV LED lighting installation with respect to an LED lighting installation connected to the alternating current grid and adapted to the current regulations through underground channeling.
A total 88% of the subjects consider a sustainable and adequate solution to renew the installation of urban lighting, and that the new installation is powered exclusively by PV energy. At first glance, there are no relevant differences considering different segments of ages.
