The Macaci interchange, on the Abobo’s expressway was brought into service in October 2023 to relieve traffic congestion at this strategic crossroad. Novéa Energies solution were chosen to make the roads safe at night. A major work of art The construction of the aerial interchange began in 2022 and was completed the end of 2023. The 245-metre-long strucre, with a total width of 16,30 metre is equipped with 2x2 traffic lanes to ease the flow of people of goods in and around Abobo. This construction is part of a larger project demonstrating the Ivorian Government’s commitment to providing user with a high-quality road network. Autonomous solar lighting secures the interchange In terms of lighting, Novéa Energies solar-powered street lights were selected to provide safety for this new stretch of road at night: the 25 Combi Top 5+ dual-lamp unit light the lanes from dusk to dawn with a reduction in brightness in the middle of the night when traffic is lighter. This dimming mode provides appropriate lighting for users a and limits light pollution. The decision to install our autonomous lighting solutions right in the heart of Abidjan meets the region’s economic and ecological challenges while keeping a real aesthetic appeal thanks to our wide selection of luminaires from the Ragni range and the RAL White chosen for the street lights. Reliable, 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. New challenges in Ivory Coast This project, from design to installation was managed by the GROUPE RAGNI subsidiary in Ivory Coast. A success that opens new opportunities for the subsidiary. “We are committed to long-term action in terms of quality and the volume to be installed, in line with the extraordinary development of Ivory Coast’s road network. We are already working on other interesting challenges in this respect.” Fatoumata MENANN-KOUAME, General director of GROUPE RAGNI Ivory Coast Complementary informations: Model Combi Top 5+ Light height 7 m RAL 9010 Luminaire Tekk S Colour temperature 4000 K Solar Panel 400 W Technology of the battery Endurance+ Technology Guarantee 5 years
