Solar lighting has made its mark on the lighting market, positioning itself as an alternative solution in areas where the network is outdated or absent. As well as providing the same level of safety in public spaces as a grid connected system, a solar streetlight is also economically and ecologically attractive, as it is simple to install, requires no trenching and does not generate an energy bill. But solar lighting can also become promotional materials. They will obviously carry a message of sustainable lighting but they can also become ambassadors of your municipality’s image ! Thanks to its 360° offer, the Groupe Ragni can provide a large catalogue of Ragni brackets and luminaires that are compatible with Novéa Energies solar lighting systems. In this way, aesthetics becomes an integral part of your lighting design: Column or Combi Top model, colour, traditional or modern design… Interoperability is therefore the key to choosing the right lighting solution, to maximise the services the product can provide to your local community: safety, town and country planning but also an information space, for example, with the addition of information or signs. Anything is possible if the addition of accessories is planned in advance ! Let’s take the example of the city of Sète (France), which has designed the lighting system of the Lido promenade as a tool to serve the site with: The choice of a modern, modular design with the AKKOR solar column. The finish is a combination of remote and integrated luminaires, all in an elegant anthracite grey. The lighting is adapted to the location to ensure the safety of walkers during the seasonal peak of visitors (detection mode on the beach side and permanent then lowering + detection lighting in the middle of the night on the lane side). To cope with seasonal flow of visitors looking for information, Sète has chosen to add informative support to the mast (a kakemono that can be customised by the municipality and numbered signs, here for for beach entrances). Lighting also means embellishing, protecting and informing!
