Solar Street Llights

SPV Street Lights, a reality for environmentally-conscious cities

Electric street lights are big consumers of energy, costing millions to cities and municipalities around the world. Solar lighting can be implemented in any remote location where the cost of installing usual power supply is too expensive or problematic.
Well designed, solar street lights systems can provide an excellent alternative to traditional electric street lighting, in addition to significant energy and maintenance savings.

Unlike solar yard lights, solar powered street lights are not off the shelf products and great attention is required before making any decision.

The conversion to solar lighting is feasible and cost-effective, not to mention the benefits of using clean and renewable energy. You want to make sure the street lights you are planning to buy are suitable for your specific application and will work properly in your environment.

We heard horror stories about solar street lights not being efficient… most of the time solar technology could have worked. Well thought decisions have to be made about solar panels, batteries, lamps or LEDs (Led Emitting Diodes), electronic circuitry like solar charger controller and backup systems for overcast days.

Design

Choosing an efficient solar road lighting system is not an easy task

Customers tend to choose the least expensive solar products without a proper assessment and not always taking into consideration important data like solar radiation, sunshine duration and climatology at a given latitude. It is also very important to determine how many hours of illumination is required daily and how many days the lights should operate in case of overcast weather.
Once all these data are collected and analyzed, then the solar street lights system can be configured and designed to deliver what the client is expecting.

By clearly assessing your particular needs, we can assist and provide you with a well configured, efficient and reliable product, designed for your specific street lighting application.

Solar street lights come in different flavors. The latest trend is geared towards LEDs technology, the main reason being that LEDs have a very long life, good color rendition and most importantly, LEDs consume much less power than sodium lamps. The use of solar LED street lights allows smaller sizing of the solar panel, battery, solar charger and other components.
