WHY PARKING LOTS ARE A GREAT FIT

The challenge usually isn't the fixture. It's getting power to it.

Adding conventional lot lighting can mean saw-cutting pavement, trenching, conduit, wiring, electrical service, utility coordination and pavement restoration. Off-grid solar removes that electrical path from the project.

✓
Existing lots
Improve dark areas without tearing through finished pavement.
✓
New construction
Reduce dependency on underground electrical infrastructure.
✓
Remote or overflow lots
Put lighting where utility power is inconvenient or unavailable.
✓
Phased projects
Add independent lighting as the property expands.
A DIFFERENT WAY TO BUILD THE PROJECT

Solar vs. traditional wired parking lot lighting

Solar is not automatically the right answer for every property. It becomes especially compelling when getting electrical power to the desired pole locations is expensive, disruptive or slow.

Traditional Wired

  • Trenching or directional boring may be required
  • Conduit and underground wiring
  • Electrical service and utility coordination
  • Potential asphalt, concrete or landscape restoration
  • Ongoing electricity consumption

Off-Grid Solar

  • Independent power at each lighting location
  • No underground electrical run between poles
  • No grid connection for the lighting system
  • Minimal disruption to finished property
  • No monthly electricity bill for the lights
ENGINEERED, NOT GUESSED

We design around the lot, not around a box of fixtures.

A commercial solar lighting system has to balance illumination, pole spacing, fixture distribution, operating schedule, battery storage and available solar energy. The goal is dependable light where people and vehicles actually need it.

1
Review the site
Lot geometry, obstructions, existing infrastructure and lighting goals.
2
Build the photometric layout
Model pole placement, fixture height, distribution and illumination.
3
Size the solar system
Configure energy collection and storage around local conditions and run time.
4
Install and commission
Set the equipment, verify operation and program the desired schedule.

Employee parking, loading areas and remote edges.

03

Churches & Schools

Large lots away from existing electrical infrastructure.

04

Multifamily & HOAs

Established pavement and landscaping without destructive trenching.

05

Municipal Properties

Parks, civic facilities, trailheads and public lots.

06

Overflow & Remote Lots

Areas where extending grid power is impractical.
