Car sharing systems emerged as a new answer to mobility challenges in smart and sustainable cities. Despite their apparent success, design and exploitation of such systems raise crucial strategic and operational challenges. To help planners and decision makers, simulation, analysis and optimization models are unavoidable. Based on the formal modelling and analysis power of stochastic Petri nets, this paper proposes a discrete event simulation model for electric car sharing systems for performance and analysis purposes, taking into account their complex dynamic behaviour, organization and parameters including capacities of the stations, battery and energy availability, locations of charging stations and also their car maintenance activities, not negligible compared to the case of bike-sharing systems.

As high-efficiency lighting has become mainstream, conversion of lighting equipment is under way, starting with government agencies. Existing fluorescent luminaires are being converted with LED luminaires. The main method used for conversion is to remove the fluorescent lamp (case 1) and replace it to a tubular LED lamp, and convert the luminaire itself with a LED panel luminaire (case 2). However, focusing only on energy efficiency, the existing luminous environment are not considered, such as illuminance, illuminance uniformity, and UGR. Therefore, the optical characteristics were measured using the actual luminaire used in the conversion. Simulations were performed comparing the luminous environment and power consumption before/after conversion. Case 1 had advantages in power consumption and UGR over case 2, and the illuminance was slightly reduced, but it met the criteria. These results confirmed that the conversion of lighting devices at least ensured the existing luminous environment.
