Question 1

What is the best wattage for solar street lights?

Accepted Answer

The optimal wattage for a solar streetlight is not a fixed value, but depends on a combination of factors, including the height of the pole, the width of the road, and the lighting requirements, to name a few. If you have this information, we can run a lighting simulation to confirm the optimum wattage of streetlights for your project. If you don't have this information, you can confirm the wattage by the height of the pole, e.g. 10-20W for 3-4 metres, 30-40W for 5-6 metres, 50-60W for 7-8 metres and so on.

Question 2

Why are solar LED lights so expensive?

Accepted Answer

Traditional lamps are mainly composed of a housing, a light source, and a power source. Solar lamps also require solar panels to capture solar energy and store it in batteries. Usually, the cost of these components is higher than that of LED lamps, which greatly increases the cost of solar LED lamps. As the wattage increases, the capacity of solar panels and batteries will also increase greatly, and their cost will increase exponentially, which is the main reason why your solar LED lights are so expensive.

Question 3

Are solar street lights worth it?

Accepted Answer

Compared with traditional lighting, solar street lights are really worth the money for the following two main reasons:

1. Although the price of solar street lights is twice or even several times higher than that of ordinary mains street lights, solar street lights do not require trenching and wiring, which can save a large part of the expenditure. For areas with backward infrastructure, it can completely offset the cost of lamps.

2. Over time, it saves more money for companies, businesses and municipalities. For example, a 10-kilometer highway (15 meters wide) can save about 20,000 kWh of electricity a year when all the lamps are replaced with solar street lights. Based on the average electricity cost of US$0.2 per kWh, at least more than US$4,000 can be saved each year.
