It is not necessary to switch on or switch off the solar LED's light manually. These lights automatically operate from night until morning. In this article, we would discuss some of the top solar energy uses, applications and examples.
The Solar Street light consists of the following1. Solar PanelsThe solar panel is known as Photovoltaic cell which uses light energy from the Sun to convert solar energy into electricity. This electricity can be used to run many applications.
2.
LED lightLED light which is used in solar streetlights, emits brighter light with low energy consumption. A single LED will emit less light than compact fluorescent or incandescent. But a set of LEDs give brighter light than other lamps.
3.
Rechargeable battery:These batteries are used for storing electricity received by the solar panel during the daytime, and it provides electricity at night.4. ControllerThe controller is used to controlling when to switch on and switch off the street lights. It also controls battery from undercharging and overcharging.
It consists of MCU, secondary power supply and battery charger, etc.5. PoleFor every street light, 12 Feet pole is required so that some components like batteries, fixtures, and panels can be mounted.6. Interconnecting cablesBattery box, LED light, and the solar panel is mounted on the top of pole and they are connected through interconnected cables.
A PV module is connected with a controller and it is connected with battery and LED lamps. The size of the cable depends on current, how much it is used and the pole size.Top 5 Applications of Street Lights and its Uses1.
Airport LightingMany Airports are equipped with solar lights because they are easy to install with no conventional electricity cost. These LED lights are installed at the runway and are portable. On the other hand, maintenance is needed only once in 7 years.
These lights are used for safe Aircraft operations at night time.2. Highway and roadway lightingThe Solar LED street light is also very easy to install. With the help of these lights, the risk of accidents is minimized as there are no external wires needed for electric connections.
These lights can be installed easily in the remote roadway or highway where there is no electricity. The LED Streetlight provides clear visibility for the pedestrian and drivers. High-quality illumination LED light system beautifies urban areas at night without polluting the environment.
3.
Park and Playground lightingSolar lighting systems are beneficial for the park and playground lighting needs as it helps to light signs, trails, pavilions and parking lot.

These days, most of the cricket or football matches are held at night time due to several reasons. So Solar LED lights are installed in the stadium or playgrounds that can provide high power lighting inside the field. For any sport, the Playground needs high power lighting, called floodlight which can be achieved by the solar panel at low cost and minimal maintenance.
4.
Industrial lighting and commercial lightingThe Solar LED lighting system has an exceptional storage system that allows 3 days of continuous illumination without any recharge. Industrial areas are bigger in size; therefore, they take a large amount of electricity for outdoor lighting. While installing these solar lights, the cost of electric wires will reduce and maintenance costs will lower.
Have a look at some of the Commercial Solar Lighting Services we offer.5. Outdoor security lightingSolar-powered security lights are illuminated by solar energy which is converted into electric energy. As a result, these are a practical choice for security purposes, as without electricity they can operate at night because the sun provides needed energy during the day.
These lights automatically turn on when it senses any motion. They also operate during cloudy weather conditions and provide reliable lighting anytime. Outdoor lights are very successful in rural areas and Intelizon's Zonstreet has been satisfyingly deployed at Rural Maharashtra.
There are many areas such as parking lot, Hospital parking, and residential lighting where these solar-powered street lights are used. These Solar LED street lights require less system for installation and also provide high power lighting when compared to conventional lighting. It also offers shelf-life and minimal maintenance.
It provides a portability facility and comes with 2 years of warranty. These Solar Street lights are Pollution-free lights. Only the cost of the initial investment is high when compared to the conventional lights.
And only dust, snow, and moisture can hinder energy production. These lights are not a practical option for every application because the cost is on a higher sideOriginally published at on November 6, 2019
