In the outskirts of cities and towns, solar streetlights provide security for citizens and contribute to a sustainable image for the municipality. COVIMED SOLAR offers various options for each project.
"""Lighting is important for many reasons: Safety: adequate lighting increases citizens' sense of security and reduces traffic accidents. Accessibility: Poor lighting can hinder people's mobility and accessibility, especially at night. Social gathering: an illuminated street encourages people to leave their homes for healthy activity, promoting community life between neighbours. Environmental impact: Lighting design must take into account environmental impact, since light pollution can have negative effects on fauna and flora. COVIMED, with the technology it incorporates in its streetlights, can adapt to each project and environment for responsible lighting of pedestrian spaces."""
COVIMED SOLAR solar street lights represent cutting-edge technology that harnesses solar energy efficiently and sustainably to provide urban lighting. The combination of advanced solar panels, LiFeP04 storage batteries, intelligent control and versatile design makes them an effective solution to reduce energy consumption and promote a more sustainable and green urban environment. These streetlights are an example of how technology can be used to address current challenges and improve the quality of life in our cities and towns. Coupled with these technological advances, streetlights can develop different compatible uses, such as installation of surveillance cameras, Wi-Fi points, hybrid network/solar connection, intelligent sensor,…
A solar streetlight has more components than a regular streetlight (solar panel, battery, controller, luminaire, etc.), making it more expensive. However, for a specific project, as it does not require wiring, trenches, electrical transformers, etc., it reduces the project cost and the necessary civil work.
The same regulations regarding roadway lighting efficiency, safety, and poles apply, in addition to the specific regulations for the specific components (solar panel, battery, etc.).
Yes, they are easy to install, they do not require extensive technical preparation, the connection is simple, mechanical, and the electrical connections of each component are simple and unambiguous, with no possibility of confusion.
The lifespan of the LiFePO4 lithium batteries in COVIMED streetlights is approximately 6 to 8 years, depending on operating conditions and maintenance.
Yes, COVIMED solar streetlights have very low maintenance needs and do not require permanent tasks, aided by the monitoring system that most of the streetlights have.
