LED Solar lighting

Solar lighting saves a lot of money on energy costs and reduces your carbon footprint. We offer fixtures that are fully powered by solar energy as well as hybrid fixtures that are partly powered by solar energy and partly by electricity from the grid. A successful pilot with hybrid LED lamps of Vocare-Ledlight in the municipality of Olst-Wijhe showed a reduction in energy consumption of approximately 75%.

Solar Lighting – Everything About Solar-Powered Lighting

Solar lighting is lighting that operates entirely or largely on solar energy. During the day, solar panels capture sunlight and convert it into electricity, which is stored in an integrated battery. Once it gets dark, the lighting system uses this stored energy to power LED lamps. As a result, solar lighting operates independently of the electrical grid and does not require any cabling.

Thanks to the combination of solar panels, energy-efficient LED technology, and battery storage, solar lighting offers a sustainable and cost-effective solution for outdoor spaces. Solar street lighting is widely used in public areas such as roads, parking lots, bicycle paths, parks, and industrial estates. Because no connection to the power grid is required, installation costs are often lower, and lighting can also be installed in locations where electricity infrastructure is unavailable.

Modern solar lighting systems are often equipped with smart features such as dusk-to-dawn sensors, motion detection, and automatic dimming controls. This ensures efficient energy usage while maintaining reliable light output throughout the night.​​

Solar Lighting – Everything About Solar-Powered Lighting

Benefits of Solar-Powered LED Lighting

SOLAR LED lighting is a sustainable and energy-efficient solution that is becoming increasingly popular. It is a perfect solution for areas where it is difficult to install power supplies. The solar fixtures operate entirely on solar energy and are easy to install without digging. It is therefore ideal, for example, for campsites, marinas, natural cottages, farms, parks, remote spots, etc., but also in populated areas for lighting parking lots, shopping areas, playing fields and so on.

What are the aspects of SOLAR LED lighting that make it attractive to choose this type of site lighting? We list them for you:

  1. Solar panel: The system uses solar panels to convert solar energy into electricity. These panels are usually mounted on or near the fixture, allowing them to capture direct sunlight.

  2. Battery: A battery is used to store the solar energy generated during the day, allowing the lights to stay on at night even when there is no sunlight. These batteries are usually lithium-ion or lead-acid type and are charged by the solar panel.

  3. LED lighting: The lighting itself consists of LED bulbs, which are very energy-efficient and have a long lifespan. LEDs are ideal for solar lighting systems because they consume little power and are efficient at converting electricity into light.

  4. Sustainability: By using solar energy instead of grid electricity, solar LED lighting reduces dependence on fossil fuels and reduces CO2 emissions, making it an environmentally friendly and sustainable option.

  5. Independence from the power grid: Solar LED lighting systems are independent of the power grid, which means they can be installed in remote locations where electricity supply is not available. This makes them ideal for rural areas, parks, bike paths and other remote locations.

  6. Less maintenance: Because solar LED lighting does not require wiring to the power grid and the LED bulbs have a long lifespan, these systems generally require less maintenance than traditional street lighting systems.

Applications of Solar Lighting

Solar lighting offers many advantages and can be used in almost any location. It is an ideal solution for areas where installing traditional power infrastructure is difficult. Because the fixtures run entirely on solar energy, they are easy to install and operate independently of the power grid.

Solar fixtures are also highly suitable for public spaces—such as parks—where lighting is important for safety. We also offer hybrid fixtures that operate on both solar energy and grid power. When the stored solar energy is depleted, the fixture automatically switches to the electrical grid. This ensures continuous lighting while maximizing energy savings.

Successful pilot with Solar Hybrid Lighting in the Municipality of Olst-Wijhe

In 2023, Vocare-Ledlight carried out a pilot project with solar hybrid lighting on behalf of the municipality of Olst-Wijhe. The aim of this pilot was to determine how much the municipality could save compared to standard LED lighting. For this pilot our 3‑cell hybrid luminaires were installed on the Handelsweg in Wijhe, a busy street with shops and parking spaces. The solar hybrid lamps replaced the Philips LED fixtures. The results of the pilot project were very positive: in terms of energy consumption, the hybrid lamps provide the municipality of Olst-Wijhe with an average saving of 75%. Shoppers and passers-by were also very satisfied. Based on these results, the municipality decided to keep the Vocare solar hybrid luminaires on the Handelsweg and to equip a large parking area near the daycare centre and secondary school with the same lighting.
