Hanoi began switching streetlight control to radio in 2012 — but by 2023 still only 70% of its 2,456 control cabinets were actually wired into the control center.

Hanoi's state-owned lighting utility HAPULICO has migrated streetlight control from hardwired lines to GSM-GPRS radio since 2012, adding GIS-based management in 2016 and a mobile 'Hapulico-Smart' platform that lets operators dim for weather and flag faults.
📊 Impact
By January 2023, about 1,898 of the network's 2,456 control cabinets — roughly 70%, covering 204,361 fixtures across 5,031km of lighting — were linked to the control center; the rest still run unmonitored.
