In Malaysia, the Collaborative Research in Engineering, Science and Technology (CREST) has partnered with IDT to conduct a smart city pilot.
The pilot includes validating the advantages of intelligent street lighting in reducing energy consumption, supporting smart city applications and making lights more interactive for residents.
The two parties are conducting two intelligent street lighting projects following a successful pilot in IDT’s Malaysian office.
The initial phase of the first project involves upgrading 92 streetlights in the Bayan Lepas Free Industrial Zone in the Malaysian state of Penang.
