Sant’Egidio alla Vibrata (TE) is an Italian town of 9,743 inhabitants in the Province of Teramo in Abruzzo and belongs to the Union of Municipalities of Val Vibrata. According to the Augustan subdivision of Italy, the territory in which Sant’Egidio alla Vibrata stands today was part of the V Region, the Piceno. The region, like many Roman territories, was devastated by riots and raids during the barbarian invasions, until the ruinous fall of the Western Roman Empire.

The need of the Municipality of Sant’Egidio alla Vibrata required an intervention of redevelopment, technological innovation and savings. The concession concerns services provided to citizens that are immediately usable and have a strong impact, from the point of view of quality of life. The project is structured in such a way as to fully meet the needs highlighted by the Municipality. The interventions concern the redevelopment of all squares and meeting places from an architectural and lighting point of view. Replacing the yellow lights in favor of white LED ones gives the surrounding area a brighter, more natural look. The increase in brightness is also able to produce a feeling of greater security.

The intervention required the installation of 846 new LED lighting fixtures to replace the old lamps, the installation of 600 new LED light points, the installation of 10 photovoltaic street lights and 4.7 km of new underground power line . The redevelopment of the sections of old systems consists of the replacement of the supports and the related lighting fixtures, the possible construction of a new foundation plinth and the derivation manhole, and the renovation of the electrical wiring from the manhole to the lighting body. The interventions carried out during the concession were aimed at overcoming critical issues in terms of safety and achieving energy savings, reducing light pollution and improving the reliability and efficiency of technological systems.

In pursuit of the objectives set by the urban security policy, 26 cameras have been installed in 14 sites: 19 fixed cameras while 7 Speed Dome cameras are perfect for monitoring large environments such as playgrounds thanks to their ability to rotate 360°. Filming and monitoring are in real time and continuous thanks to night lighting, thus also responding to the Client’s need to distinguish faces and therefore represent an important deterrent against vandalism, helping to make security camera footage clearer and sharper. Almost all the systems were renovated, using technologically advanced and high-performance equipment. In addition, in order to ensure the best comfort conditions and allow maximum energy savings, a remote supervision and control system (remote control) will be installed on all utilities.
