The Advantages of Solar Roadway Lighting
Roadway lighting is an integral part of our landscape. Not only do they make roads safer for pedestrians and drivers, but they also help communities save energy costs, particularly if they’re solar-powered. Greenshine’s solar LED roadway lighting, in particular, is extremely cost-effective, easy to install, and doesn’t require any monthly fees for electricity usage.
Read on to learn more about Greenshine solar roadway lighting advantages, features, and technology.
What are the advantages of solar roadway lighting?
LED road lights offer significant advantages by lighting roads to ensure vehicle and pedestrian safety. However, traditional (electric or non-solar) roadway lighting can be prohibitively expensive. This is because standard practice requires roadway lighting systems to provide lighting for the maximum vehicle and pedestrian volume, regardless of real-time roadway usage or actual roadway conditions.
Fortunately, Greenshine offers a cost-effective way to light up roads at night. We provide up-to-date, tailor-made solar highway road lights that are:
Virtually maintenance-free
Flexible: Light up dark alleys, roads, and other parts of cities and towns.
Environmentally-friendly: Our solar lights have a minimal carbon footprint, don't use fossil fuels, and are incredibly clean.
Autonomous: our solar lights won’t go out when the power goes out.
Cost-effective: Our solar light systems don’t require monthly fees for electricity.
Easy to install: Even if you’re too far away from the power grid, you can still use our solar lights.
Don’t require trenching: Traditional roadway lighting requires “trenching,” which is the removal of large portions of soil to connect to the power grid, but our lights don’t require this at all. This means you won’t have to waste money on trenching or change anything about your property.
Composed of top-notch materials that can last up to several years

FEATURES INCLUDE:
Highway Lighting Technology
Our lights are cost-effective, high-tech, and easy to use. Plus, they come equipped with powerful features, such as solar street light batteries, photovoltaic solar panels, galvanized steel poles, and powerful controllers.
Solar Street Light Batteries
Greenshine’s roadway lighting, like all of our other products, runs on deep-cycle gel acid batteries. Designed to last five days of autonomy, these batteries will keep the roadway lights on even during the darkest weeks.
What’s more, you only have to change the batteries once every seven years. The batteries also come with many options for placement, such as placing it lower for ease of access and stability or higher for shorter electrical pathways. You also have the option to bury the batteries to ensure higher security, better protection from the elements, and cleaner presentation.
Photovoltaic Solar Panels
Our roadway lights also stand out for their photovoltaic (PV) panels, which boast the following features:
Utilization of Greenshine Smart Power Technology, which uses special components to deliver just the right amount of electricity to the LED road light and battery as needed.
Tough, uniquely designed aluminum frames that can withstand strong winds.
Resistant tempered glass
Multi-layered EVA encapsulation with three-layer back sheet
PV panels are made of 99.9% monocrystalline silicon, which can:
Provide at minimum five percent performance over other technologies
Absorb high levels of solar power through absorbing photons (units of light) from the sun
What’s more, our panels come with a 25-year power output warranty.
Galvanized Steel Poles
Greenshine roadway lights come with substantial, beefy galvanized steel poles that can withstand destructive natural forces such as hurricane winds and storms. This makes them a great return for your investment since they can withstand all weather conditions and resist strong impact.
If you’re worried about traffic collisions, we can also add breakaway bases to the lights as needed.
Controllers
Another one of Greenshine roadway lights’ standout features is our controller, which has:
Temperature compensation
Customization by Greenshine to fit your needs
Easy installation
Four-stage battery charging, with main, float, boost, and equalization stages
The ability to create a dimming effect that fits with various lighting purposes
An automatic system voltage recognition (12V/24V)
Corrosion-proof epoxy-encapsulated PCB (IP68)
