Solar Lighting for Government & Military
By adopting solar lighting, the government and military can significantly enhance energy efficiency and reduce operational costs. Solar lighting offers a sustainable and reliable energy source, minimizing dependency on traditional power grids and fossil fuels. This transition not only supports environmental goals by reducing carbon emissions but also ensures energy security in remote or off-grid locations. The implementation of solar lighting can lead to long-term financial savings and bolster national resilience, making it a strategic investment for both governmental and military infrastructures.






Why Government & Military Choose Solar Lighting
Reducing Energy Consumption
Solar lighting systems are highly energy-efficient, utilizing advanced LED technology and controls to minimize energy use. These systems optimize performance by adjusting brightness levels based on activity or time of day, reducing unnecessary energy consumption. Military divisions can significantly lower their energy demands by switching to solar lighting while maintaining well-lit spaces.
Increasing Renewable Energy Use
Harnessing solar power enables government facilities to reduce their dependency on fossil fuels. Solar lighting systems convert sunlight into electricity, providing a clean, sustainable energy source for public lighting needs. This shift aligns with renewable energy goals and showcases a commitment to advancing green technology.
Reducing Waste
Solar lighting systems last 20+ years with minimal maintenance, featuring durable materials and components that minimize the need for replacements. The extended lifespan of solar lights compared to traditional lighting reduces waste generation, including the disposal of bulbs, ballasts, and other components. Additionally, many solar systems are designed with recyclable materials, further contributing to waste reduction efforts.
Protecting The Environment
Government and military installations can substantially reduce greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution linked to conventional grid-powered lighting by implementing solar power solutions. Solar lighting systems function without producing harmful emissions, thereby promoting cleaner air and a healthier environment. Additionally, these systems contribute to the protection of natural habitats by minimizing the need for disruptive trenching and electrical installations, thus preserving the local ecosystem.
Solar LED Lighting Systems for Government & Military
SEPCO's state-of-the-art solar-powered LED lighting systems offer a sustainable and efficient solution for illuminating spaces without relying on conventional utility power. These systems are designed to slash electric bills to zero and eliminate the disruptive process of laying down electrical wiring for setup. Our solar LED lights have been deployed across a diverse range of environments. They not only enhance security and visibility but also contribute to a greener, more sustainable image for communities everywhere. SEPCO systems meet local AASHTO wind load ratings and are BABA-compliant.

Streets & Pathway Lighting
Solar street lighting is a sustainable and cost-effective solution for illuminating streets, highways, rural roadways, access roads, development and neighborhood roadways, and more. Our solar street lights provide reliable lighting powered by renewable solar energy, ensuring safety and security in urban and rural environments.

Parking Lot Lighting
SEPCO's commercial solar lighting systems are the perfect solution for your parking lot projects. We offer high-powered LED fixtures for commercial and industrial parking lots, remote large or small parking lots, parks & recreation parking spaces, HOA parking areas, and more. Our solar parking lot lights provide reliable lighting powered by renewable solar energy.

Flag Lighting
Government and military facilities have flags installed across a site. Not every spot has access to the grid power. Solar allows for the Flag Code to be adhered to when it comes to lighting. The solar lighting system should be sized to maintain continuous illumination from dusk to dawn, even on the longest night of the year. See how SEPCO stands up to the test.

Sign Lighting
SEPCO's commercial solar lighting and power systems are the perfect solution for your sign projects. We offer high-powered LED flood fixtures for wall washing, face-illuminated signs, and billboards. We also offer custom-designed solar power systems to operate LED modules for backlit cabinets, pylons, channel letters, and other internally illuminated sign cabinets.

Area Security Lighting
Security lighting plays a huge part in the safety and security of people and property at Government and Military facilities. The lights can be installed along perimeters and in remote locations and community spaces around an area. Off-grid solar allows these remote locations to be well-lit while not being affected by traditional grid issues.
