As Day becomes the new night for cheap electricity and night will become the most expensive, here is a brilliant idea in Norway.
Have the lights dim to 20% when no cars or people are driving by. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1114623_how-serious- is-norway-about-climate-change-so-much-that-its-streetlights-self-dim ANd if you watch the video they mention one of my concerns about a failed radar on any given pole is mitigated because all the lights also talk to each other by RF so that they tell the other lights what is coming. Neat! Saves 80% of light power while still providing full illumination when someone needs it. I am generally upset at night sky pollution due to excessive night lighting. But this is a step in the right direction. Remember what our scities look like at night from the air? What a waste of energy...
