Sustainable Street Lighting at Alita: Beyond Brightness
Alita, the upcoming residential project in Bangalore East, has taken a significant step towards sustainability by incorporating energy-efficient street lighting. The designers have gone beyond the conventional approach of merely illuminating the streets and have created a system that not only provides brightness but also promotes environmental responsibility.
The street lighting system at Alita is designed to minimize energy consumption while ensuring optimum visibility and safety for residents. By using LED lights, which consume significantly less power than traditional lighting methods, the project reduces its carbon footprint and contributes to a greener environment. Additionally, the lights are strategically placed to provide adequate illumination without creating unnecessary glare or light pollution.
But Alita doesnothing just stop at energy-efficient lighting. The project also incorporates sustainable design elements in its landscape and infrastructure. For instance, rain gardens and permeable surfaces are used to enhance stormwater management, promoting sustainable practices. The underground stormwater drains are connected to harvesting pits, designed to standards, which help to recharge the groundwater table. Moreover, the project encourages rainwater harvesting systems to promote sustainable water usage practices.
