Why choose solar street lighting?

Increasingly present in urban areas, as well as in rural areas where there is no public lighting, solar street lighting is an ecological and sustainable solution.

This solution is changing the way public spaces are lit and more and more people are choosing this self-sufficient solar lighting alternative, which offers a host of benefits.

How do solar streetlights work?

– Solar street lights consist of solar panels, LEDs and batteries.

– The solar panels capture the sun’s energy during the day and the battery stores this energy.

– When darkness falls or movement is detected, the battery releases the stored energy, allowing the LED to light up.

 

What are the benefits of using solar street lights?

These lighting solutions, developed by specialist companies such as Sunna Design, have a number of advantages.

Respect for the environment:They only require solar energy to be activated, a source that is constantly renewable and free, so their impact on the environment is minimal and under control.

Lifespan:Solar street lights have a lifespan of approximately 15 to 30 years, while traditional street lights have a maximum lifespan of 15 years.

Ease of installation:As they don’t need to be connected to the electricity grid, solar street lights are completely independent, self-sufficient and very easy to install.

A source of safety:Solar street lighting helps to improve safety in dark, poorly lit areas that were previously prone to insecurity.

Versatile solution:These solar street lighting solutions can be adapted to a variety of uses and environmental conditions: remote roads, urban parks, non-electrified areas, etc., and are sure to meet the different lighting needs of different areas.

At ARTS Energy, we design and manufacture, at our French production site, special batteries for solar applications that require temperature resistance and very long life.
