Why Solar Street Lighting Is So Popular?

Starting in September 2021, power rationing has begun across China. What is going on here? Why did it suddenly start power cuts? From three days of work and four days off to one day of work and six days off, power cut and production restrictions policies have been introduced in various places. Without electricity, the production and operation of many enterprises are greatly affected. Under normal circumstances, industries with high energy consumption and high pollution are mainly affected, but now even light industrial plants are also restricted in electricity and production. Two reasons led to this result. One is the power shortage caused by coal price increases. Second, China has always insisted on saving energy and reducing energy consumption. At present, the proportion of thermal power generation in China's power generation structure is still more than 70%, and thermal power uses coal to generate electricity. Due to the excessive increase in coal prices, thermal power generation has been losing money. 

Not only China, with the gradual reduction of conventional energy sources, more and more countries in the world are facing energy shortages and power shortages. Electricity is the most important factor restricting economic development. According to incomplete statistics, the total number of street lights in China's domestic cities is currently about 4 million, plus about 1 million non-municipal street lights in highways, industrial and mining enterprises, airports, and docks. The total number exceeds more than 5 million. Increase at a rate of more than 10%. Among them, urban public lighting accounts for 30% of China's lighting power consumption, about 43.9 billion kWh. Based on the average electricity price of 0.65 RMB/kWh, the annual expenditure reaches 28.5 billion RMB, which has become a major burden for local financial departments.

Solar power street lamp, as an outdoor solar lighting product, has been recognized by more and more people. It consists of solar panel, controller, rechargeable, light source, light pole, etc. Traditional street lights are gradually being replaced by the solar power street lamps. Why? The solar power street lamp take the solar light as energy source, without consuming conventional electricity. Electricity for traditional street lights comes from thermal power generation, and the main raw material for thermal power generation is coal. The coal is non-renewable and pollute the environment. However, the solar panel can absorb the solar light and transfer the solar energy into electricity and store it in the battery. The solar energy is clean, energy-saving and inhauxtible. The solar light is everywhere in the planet. In the current condition, solar energy is taken into account the most cost-effective energy. The use of solar street lights can greatly alleviate the power shortage situation.

The solar led street lamp is also easy to install and maintain. The costing of laying cables and digging holes is high. Using solar street light, these costs can be saved. The most important is that there will be no electricity bills generated. If your place are shortage of electricity, solar power street lamps would be your best choice.
