In Côte d’Ivoire, the Faya road interchange is lit by solar energy !

Open to traffic since May 2025, this interchange located in Cocody makes it easier to travel between Abidjan and Bingerville. Novéa Energies’ solar streetlights provide lighting and safety on the road after nightfall.

A structure at the heart of Abidjan’s road infrastructure development

The economic capital of Côte d’Ivoire is developing its road infrastructures to modernise the urban road network and respond to growing number of vehicle and increased mobility towards the Abidjan metropolitan area. The 190-meter-long Faya interchange, equipped with 3×3 lanes, is an essential link in the Greater Abidjan road infrastructure improvement plan. The structure has been designed to meet the challenges of multimodal transport and the current and future needs of users; the Faya interchange will be an integral part of future developments in neighbouring districts to form a logical road network.

25 Combi Top 5+ Novéa Energies provide safety at the road interchange

As with the Macaci interchange, which opened in 2023, Novéa Energies street lighting solutions were selected to secure this strategic crossroads at night. Twenty-five Combi Top 5+ solar streetlights were deployed, combining performance, durability and design:

In terms of lighting performance, the two lights on each lamppost provide uniform lighting on the roads. In addition, each streetlight has been programmed to meet user needs; the Combi Top 5+ lights at full power for 5 hours after nightfall, then dim to 50% brightness for the rest of the night.

In terms of design, the TEKK luminaire from the Ragni range, specially designed for functional road lighting, fits perfectly into this type of application. The streetlights are tinted in RAL 7040, an elegant and resistant grey, which has been carefully selected to blend in with road infrastructure.

eliable, robust and completely independent from the electric grid, our solar-powered streetlights provide high-quality lighting while reducing the costs of electricity consumption related to public lighting.

This project, from design to installation was managed by the GROUPE RAGNI subsidiary in Côte d’Ivoire.
