• A new software application is provided in this paper.
• The efficient investment in street lighting and industrial and domestic electrical equipment is analyzed.
• The reduction of losses in the conductors of electrical installations is properly accounted for.
• The reduction of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere is also determined.
The activities of the electricity sector in production and consumption have implications in almost all environmental problems of today. The main environmental impacts occur during the production of electricity, mainly due to the emission of air pollutants, which is directly linked to climate change that has been observed over time. Ambitious climate change mitigation requires significant changes in many economic sectors, in particular in the production and consumption of energy. Considering that the primary energy consumption has increased, doubling since the 1970s, and in particular the consumption of electricity has had a sharper increase, nearly quadrupling in the same period, all measures that can mitigate environmental impacts on both the supply and demand sides of electricity are of interest. This paper introduces a new software application that analyses efficient investment in street lighting and industrial and domestic electrical equipment, accounting for the reduction of losses in the conductors of electrical installations, which is usually neglected. It also determines the reduction of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere, which contributes to the reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases from a country or particular product.
