[en] Lighting is an essential community service, but current implementations are not energy efficient and impact on the energy budget of the municipalities for at least 40\%. In this paper, we propose heuristics and devise a comparison methodology for new smart lighting solutions in next generation smart cities. The proposed smart lighting techniques make use of Internet of Things (IoT) augmented lamppost, which save energy by turning off or dimming the light according to the presence of citizens. Assessing costs and benefits in adopting the new smart lighting solutions is a pillar step for municipalities to foster real implementation. For evaluation purposes, we have developed a custom simulator which enables the deployment of lampposts in realistic urban environments. The citizens travel on foot along the streets and trigger activation of the lampposts according to the proposed heuristics. For the city of Luxembourg, the results highlight that replacing all existing lamps with LEDs and dimming light intensity according to the presence of users nearby the lampposts is convenient and provides an economical return already after the first year of deployment.
