GenPro’s Smartlight Solar Powered LED Street Lights
Why a Solar Street Light?
Some of the key benefits of solar powered LED streetlights is their energy efficiency and reliability. Because they rely on only solar energy, these lights do not require the use of any fossil fuels or utility infrastructure. They also do not generate any greenhouse gas emissions. This not only helps to reduce energy costs, and increase reliability but also helps to protect against emissions.
- In addition to energy efficiency, solar LED streetlights also offer significant installation, operation and maintenance cost savings compared to traditional street lighting systems. Because they do not require a connection to the electric grid, solar LED streetlights can be installed in areas where it would be costly or impossible to run electrical cables. They also have a long lifespan and require less maintenance, which can further reduce costs over time.
- Overall, the benefits of solar LED streetlights include energy efficiency, cost savings, and environmental sustainability, making them an attractive and practical choice for a wide range of applications.
Why NiMH Batteries and not lithium or lead-acid?
- A key feature of our NiMH batteries is their high energy density, which refers to the amount of energy that can be stored in a given volume of the battery. This makes our NiMH batteries the best choice for applications where a high amount of energy is required in a small space, such as the Smartlight solar LED streetlights.
- Another benefit of our NiMH batteries is their very long lifespan. These batteries are known for their ability to hold a charge for a very long time, and they can typically be recharged and used for several years before needing to be replaced. This makes them a cost-effective choice for applications that require a reliable power source over an extended period of time.
- In addition, our NiMH batteries have a low self-discharge rate, which means that they lose a small amount of their charge over time when not in use. This makes them the best choice for applications that require a consistent power supply, as they can maintain a charge for a longer period of time without needing to be recharged.
- Lead-acid batteries: Lead-acid batteries are a commonly used type of battery for solar LED streetlights, as they are relatively inexpensive and have a long lifespan. However, they are heavy and have a lower energy density compared to NiMH batteries, which can make them less practical for some applications. In addition, lead-acid batteries can be damaged by deep discharging and require regular maintenance to ensure optimal performance.
- Lithium-ion batteries: Lithium-ion batteries are another popular choice for solar LED streetlights due to their high energy density, long lifespan, and low self-discharge rate. However, they are generally more expensive than NiMH batteries, and they can be sensitive to high temperatures and require special handling and storage. In addition, lithium-ion batteries can be damaged by overcharging and require specialized charging equipment to ensure optimal performance.
- NiHM batteries: NiMH batteries offer the best balance of performance, cost, and durability compared to other types of batteries commonly used in solar LED streetlights. However, the most suitable battery for a given application will depend on the specific needs and requirements of the project.
