A self-sustaining street lamp using wind power

Light pollution and growing energy consumption is having an increasingly drastic impact on nature and humans. Papilio have designed a street lamp with an insect-friendly light spectrum that generates energy with an integrated wind rotor, enriching the public space both by day and night whilst saving non-renewable energy.
