چکیده

This paper describes an innovative Energy Consumption Management System (ECMS) that is aimed at rationalizing the end use of the electrical energy in tunnel lighting. It is based on agent technologies and Power Line Communications to achieve lowest consumption lighting conditions in an optimal way. Depending on the type of application, the system would lead also to reduced installation and running costs, especially as far as lighting systems are concerned.
