Why choose solar lights instead of electric lights

What is solar energy lighting?

Solar energy lighting is a type of lighting powered by electricity generated from sunlight. Solar energy is classified as a clean renewable energy source, which is encouraged for development. It not only brings value to humans but also helps combat the ongoing global climate change, increasingly affecting the lives of humans and all living beings on Earth.

Benefits of solar lights

100% solar energy usage, No electricity costs

While traditional lighting relies on electricity from the grid to operate, solar lights function entirely automatically by absorbing sunlight radiation, converting it into electrical energy, storing it for illumination at night. Therefore, solar street lights operate independently of the grid, resulting in no electricity costs.

No electrical connections – Safe and cost-effective

Traditional AC lights currently use a complex system of wiring, requiring a power grid connection, which involves extensive labor and costs for installation. Moreover, these lights use grid electricity, leading to potential dangers like electrical shocks during construction and maintenance.

In contrast, solar street lights do not need a grid connection, eliminating the cost of wiring and the need for trenching. They only require pole installation, making them suitable for challenging terrains, islands, rural areas without power grids.

High durability and long lifespan, weather-resistant

The average lifespan of traditional high-pressure sodium lamps is about 2-5 years. Solar lights, utilizing LED chips, have an average lifespan ranging from 12 to 15 years. The solar panel has a durability of over 25 years, and the Lithium LiFePO4 battery has a lifespan of 5-8 years. These components are modularly designed, allowing easy replacement of individual parts without replacing the entire light.

The light casing is made of solid aluminum, electrostatically sprayed for corrosion resistance and impact resistance, ensuring reliable operation in high-temperature environments, prolonged rain, and dusty conditions. This results in minimal costs and less frequent maintenance.

Environmental protection – Easy participation in green certificates

Solar street lights operate by absorbing sunlight for illumination without relying on the power grid. This makes them a green, safe energy source, reducing CO2 emissions into the atmosphere, contributing to environmental protection and mitigating climate change.

In construction, using green energy enables businesses, contractors, and investors to easily participate in green certificates such as EDGE. Companies awarded EDGE certificates enhance their appeal to customers and elevate their reputation as socially responsible leaders, collectively contributing to environmental protection.

Improved social security

The use of solar street lights in areas without electricity, remote regions, and underserved areas significantly enhances social conditions. It improves traffic convenience and reduces social issues. Additionally, installing solar lights enhances the security of your home when traveling or going out at night. The automated lighting system strengthens the security of the area, reducing the risk of theft.

However, it’s essential to choose solar lights with durability, stable operation, optimal efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Most importantly, select solar products manufactured with advanced technology, components from reputable manufacturers (Philips, Cree…), and compliant with technical specifications and safety standards.
