The situation
Shawinigan’s high-pressure sodium streetlights had reached end of life across the City’s full cobra-head fleet, 6,141 fixtures. Rather than a like-for-like bulb swap, the City wanted a network it could operate remotely and that would still be answering the same questions a decade later, not just a lower electricity bill on day one.
What was deployed
Energere converted the fleet and put every fixture on Dimonoff | SCMS, with light levels set to 60% at implementation and adjustable by zone from the platform afterward. Because SCMS is built to manage more than lighting, the City later added sewer-level sensors onto the same network rather than standing up a second system for a second asset class, one login and one map for both.
Why it matters for your network
Shawinigan is the full-fleet case: a mid-size city that converted its entire cobra-head inventory in one program rather than piloting a district first, and then used the platform’s headroom to add a second asset type without new infrastructure. If your city owns a single, homogeneous fixture type at meaningful scale, this is the precedent for converting it in one program and getting a second use out of the network afterward.
Dimonoff enables us to better manage our city. Shawinigan's 6,141 luminaires can now rely on the Dimonoff | SCMS system when it comes to speed, security and capability.
