Outdoor
street lighting units are used to illuminate a street or open areas
via solar street lighting (SSL). Since their primary energy source is
solar power, they operate in a stand-alone mode, therefore are not
dependent on the general grid for any power requirements, whatsoever.
Due to their dependency on sunlight, the lighting unit needs to be
installed in a shadow-free area or a place where direct sunlight is
available throughout the day to sufficiently charge the batteries for
one working cycle. The standalone solar photovoltaic street lighting
system comprises of a re-chargeable lead acid battery for storage, PV
(photovoltaic) modules for charging the battery,Compact Fluorescent
Lamp (CFL) as a light source, suitable electronics for the operation
of the tamp and safe charging and discharging of the battery and
mechanical hardware for fixing these sub systems. These lighting
systems are available either with automatic dusk to dawn operation or
with a pre-set timer. Tubular Batteries provided with the solar
street lighting system require lower maintenance; have longer life
and give better performance as compared to pasted plate batteries
used earlier.The SPV modules are reported to have a service life of
15-20 years.

Current
market scenarios have prompted street light manufacturers to look for
alternatives that are efficient and provide off-grid power solutions.
This gives way to certain drivers that boost the solar street
lighting market. One of the most important fundamentals involved with
SSL is the fact that they provide a viable solution to street
lighting in any terrain, irrespective of whether there is grid
connectivity to that location or not. Secondly, they reduce energy
load on the economy leading to more fiscal savings for the government
as well as the taxpayers. Solar street lights also give the benefit
of having negligible maintenance cost, no wiring or transformer costs
as well as reduction in carbon footprint. Contrary to that, since
this technology is relatively new, customers as well as industry
stakeholders are not quite aware of the benefits of the technology
yet which jeopardizes the decision making process. On a global level,
this technology cannot be adopted everywhere as there is a definite
need for sunlight, for the SSL systems to work. Moreover, the
technology is still in the innovation phase and standardization of
SSL systems has not been implemented thoroughly leading to
over-designing, under-designing or the lack of quality. Since the
technology is new and yet to create a substantial impact in many
countries, it might take a few years before it is viable on a
large-scale dimension which will lead to a wealth of opportunities
for the market.
The
solar street lighting market can be divided into many types, based on
the application that they are used for, type of lighting and the
location of the photovoltaic (PV) panels. County level street lights
and/or solar traffic lights are two types under the application
basis. Under types of lighting, there are Compact Fluorescent Lamps
(CFL) and Light Emitting Diodes (LED). In certain locations,
depending on the extent of the lighting involved, the PV panels are
either located individually on the lighting panels itself or, if the
area is large, the PV panels are centrally located.
Based
on production, the geographical diversification of the solar street
lighting industry is far and wide. Most production and implementation
of SSL systems can be found in the Asia-Pacific domain, specifically
China and India. The North American region is seeing a successful
implementation of a lot of county-level projects in the southern
states of the U.S. Such implementation has also borne fruit in the
European cities as well as the Middle East.
