Solar Lighting for Manufacturing and Industrial Facilities
Solar LED lighting systems can be used for many projects around manufacturing and industrial facilities, including streets, parking lots, and signs.
Learn about how solar lighting can be utilized, helping manufacturing and industrial facilities save money and become more sustainable for our future.
Increased Safety
Increase your manufacturing and industrial facility's safety and security, especially from natural disasters and blackouts. Solar isn't affected by many of these issues and can be a reliable lighting source. That way, no matter what mother nature throws at you, you know that your business can depend on the lights.
Reduce Environmental Impact
Utilizing solar LED lighting systems for your manufacturing or industrial facilities reduces your impact on the environment by lowering your energy requirements while also lowering the installation impact on the surrounding area and operation costs.
Reduce Costs
Installation, maintenance, and utility costs are all associated with lighting. Using solar eliminates the utility costs, while also reducing maintenance and installation costs. No additional wiring, underground utilities, high voltage lines, or the like is required. With solar, you just set the pole and forget it, with the first maintenance five years out in most cases, sometimes longer.
Streets & Roadways
Entrance and commuter roadways around manufacturing centers or industrial facilities are necessary for workers to get around. They should provide plenty of illumination for the safety and security of the nightshift workers. Switching to renewable solar LED lighting systems is a fantastic way to reduce the power requirement and load on the grid, and save money too.
Parking Lots
Employee parking lots around manufacturing and industrial facilities should be well illuminated at night to ensure good visibility and safety of their person and belongings. Using the same solar LED lighting systems as on the roadways can ensure that everyone feels safe. These lights can also be reduced when no one is present and then brought to full intensity when motion is detected.
Signs
Entrance and directional signs are important to let people know where you are and how to get around your complex. Since signs are typically installed without the power grid in mind, using solar is a great way to illuminate those signs and not add any additional energy costs. Solar can power both flood illuminated and internally illuminated signs – a versatile solution.
Area Security
Area security lighting is important to manufacturing and industrial facilities in remote areas that are difficult to bring in traditional electric grid access. These remote floods can be used for illuminating the area only during necessary times or for all night to keep people and property safe.
