Solar-powered street lamp

Solar-powered street lighting is an excellent alternative to conventional lighting. Autonomous lighting helps to reduce the energy bills for local authorities, while reducing the ecological impact of night-time lighting. Installing a solar streetlight is also less expensive and faster.

It is particularly true in areas requiring significant electrical connection work. Choosing an autonomous streetlight motorways, for example, is an ideal solution. But street and road lighting require specific study. The right level of illumination, the right uniformity and a low level of glare need to be determined to ensure the safety of users.

What type of lighting for a solar-powered streetlight ?

• Recommended average lighting level : from 7,5 to 15 lux
• Colour temperature: 3000 K maximum for the best luminous efficiency. A temperature between 220K and 2700K is also recommended for greater respect of biodiversity.

Case study

Light height : 6m

Lighting data: 19,5 W / 3216 lumens / 3000 K / ASY 11

Average lighting level: 10,2 lux / Uniformity : 0,46

Every project is unique ! We carry-out tailor-made lighting studies.

Which programme ?

Lighting the RIGHT way, by adapting the programme to the application limits light pollution and the size of the streetlight, and therefore the use of primary resources.

Examples of programmes

Depending on the traffic levels, the lighting can be dimmed or even switched off for part of the night.
