    Security & Solar Lighting Solutions

    Solar-powered LED lighting improves the quality of life for our families, businesses, and communities by providing a cost-efficient, environmentally friendly alternative to traditional high-pressure sodium lights. But the benefits of solar-powered LED lighting go far beyond the environment. Solar- powered LED lighting is the new normal because of its versatility for any public area, from residential neighborhoods, to parking lots, to public parks, to commercial venues, to street lighting

    A Smart Investment

    In Solar powered LED lighting

    will pay for itself while making our communities safer and healthier. For example, choosing solar reduces sulfur dioxide, nitrous oxides, and other harmful emissions. The amount of carbon dioxide emitted by all the streetlights in the United States is equivalent to the annual emissions of 26 million vehicles. Choosing solar-powered LED lighting contributes to a significant reduction in pollution.

    Besides cost-efficiency and environmental benefits, solar- powered LED lighting increases security, deters crime, and enhances safety. A recent study headed by a research team in New York did a controlled trial of LED lighting that saw a 39 percent drop-in crime

    Benefits of Solar Lighting

    SAVE ELIMINATE THE COST OF TRENCHING, WIRING, MONEY SWITCH-GEAR AND SOIL REMEDIATION.

    Go Off The Grid

    Whether the grid power is operating or not, commercial solar lighting systems are completely self-sustained and off-grid. This makes them a resilient investment for areas that are prone to blackouts. There is also a backup battery that allows for an additional 5 days of backup power storage in case there are intemperate or unexpected changes in the weather.

    Protecting The Planet

    There is enough energy reduced by the sun every 10 seconds to meet the energy needs of the world. For that reason, solar energy is the way to protecting our planet in the long run. The unlimited energy source will protect our planet against the damaging emissions that CO2 creates and pollutes from unclean energy producers.

    No Need For Trenching

    There is no trenching or underground wiring that is involved with solar lighting. Since the systems are installed on a pole, installation costs decrease by not having to bring down power lines and trenching into the ground in order to run the wire.

    Zero Electrical Bill

    No electric bill is associated with off-grid solar lighting systems. Solar lighting systems do all the work for you. There is no grid backup or traditional power sources needed, allowing for a cut in costs of your electricity bill. Several states over $0 down for installation plans that will automatically lower your electric bill and cost nearly nothing to install or maintain.

    Fast & Easy Installation

    There is nothing when it comes to installing a commercial solar powered light. Simply set the pole with the specific foundation requirements and assemble the solar power fixture and mounting bracket on top of the pole.

    Environmentally Friendly

    Powered by the sun, the solar panels charge the battery during the day and the controller switches to power the light from that supply during the night. The process repeats itself in the morning. This creates a seamless and effortless process when it comes to setup

    Challengers of On Grid Electricity

    Why you should consider switching to commercial solar lighting systems today

    The closest grid connection may be a considerable distance away, ultimately increasing the costs because of the environmental disruption occurring that is required by trenching

    The price per kilowatt an hour may be unmaintainable for a community, business, household that is paying for the power

    When trenching occurs, more often that not, studies are required to determine the environmental impacts of going into the ground causing a high consultation fee along with the possibility that trenching may not be allowed in the first place.

    On-grid lighting may not be an option any longer due to locations that have been designated as environmentally susceptible or at-risk.

    Trenching would be costly and potentially damage the existing infrastructure of the site.

    Some locations may have unpredictable grid power, increasing the cost of grid lighting and causing a product to potentially not work when it is supposed to.

    Depending on where trenching would occur, some areas may be at risk due to the water table being too high or ground materials making trenching unstable.

    Some cities may desire to use an alternative energy source or even have a mandate from using on-grid power.
