description Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) is a second highest on energy consumption in Johor Baharu. One of the factors influenced the consumption of energy in UTM is street lighting energy usage which consumes about 1,238.24 MWh per year of the total energy consumption in UTM. This is approximately 2.08% of the total of energy consumption in UTM. Currently, the conventional street lighting installed in the UTM consists of 956 units of 150W and 277 units of 250W High Pressure Sodium (HPS) lamp. This type of street lighting usually integrated with magnetic ballast where it is cheap and robust. However, the operation hours cannot be controlled by using this ballast, meaning the operating hours for the street lighting are 12 hours per day, hence consuming more energy. Thus, to overcome the problem on high energy consumption and operating cost, this thesis proposes to use a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) PIC16F877a dimming electronic ballast to replace the existing system.
