Abstract: This paper introduces the design scheme of power plant digital intelligent lighting under the background of "dual carbon". The application of digital intelligent lighting in power plants is analyzed and compared, and a scientific and reasonable construction scheme is proposed. By using high-efficiency or high-performance lighting fixtures, high-efficiency and long-life light sources, these methods can achieve energy-saving lighting effects. Adopting digital intelligent control methods can enhance the convenience and flexibility of lighting operation and maintenance, and can further improve the level of lighting control in power plants as well. While improving the lighting environment and quality, environmental pollution is also greatly reduced, bringing significant economic and social benefits to power plants.
