Solar street lights are a proven and reliable lighting solution that is low maintenance while providing years of cost neutral lighting.
Solar street lights are carbon-neutral, cost-effective with a short payback period.
Solar lighting can replace lights tied to the energy grid or can be stand-alone battery powered solutions. Either way, you will have an efficient and environmentally friendly alternative that is available for carbon credits.
Solar street lights are proven technology. The use of induction lighting systems with solar panels provide years of maintenance-free lighting that is bright, white light that is reliable in all weather conditions.
Solar street lights are recognizable and will provide your citizens and community with a visible sign of your commitment to sustainable energy and resources management.
SOLAR STREET LIGHTS
Street lighting is one of the largest single expenditures for many cities around the world. Staying up-to-date with new developments and adopting solar lighting technologies dramatically reduces electricity costs and green house emissions. Solar street lighting can be an economically viable option in many applications. Not only in areas where the cost of providing electricity is too expensive, but also in situations where reducing running costs is a priority.
Solar streetlights are a judicious choice for parking lots, parks, highway, roads, airports, area lighting and many other public, private and military sites.
When installing solar streetlights, there is no need for excavation to put in cables, as power does not depend on the grid. Solar energy is used to charge the self-contained battery during daylight; and at night, the power released by the battery powers up the lights. A timer or photocell controls the operation of the lights from dusk to dawn.
Setup is quick, usually less than a day per solar streetlight, and can be done by any experienced technician. The solar panel needs to be properly aligned to gather maximum energy during the day.
There are few things to consider when planning using solar streetlights. It is very important to correctly size the different components (solar panels, lamp, battery, solar controller) according to the geographic area.
Well-designed solar streetlight systems provide adequate and low-cost illumination for years, with minimum maintenance.
