China has become the world’s second-largest electricity consumption market after the United States. The rapid growth in demand, along with the tightening energy situation and the depletion of coal resources, means that existing power generation methods cannot meet electricity consumption needs. The promotion of solar power generation is quite urgent, and the market potential is enormous. The solar cell industry is bound to have significant opportunities.
Solar street lights are powered by solar panels that convert sunlight into electricity. During the day, even in overcast weather, these solar panels collect and store the necessary energy. This collected energy is used to generate electricity. Solar energy, as a renewable and environmentally-friendly resource, is receiving increasing attention. The utilization of solar photovoltaic power generation is an irreversible trend in energy use. Solar street lights emerged along with the popularization of solar water heaters, and here we provide a practical comparison between solar street lights and conventional electric street lights.
Comparison One: High Electricity Costs for Conventional Electric Lighting
Conventional electric lighting comes with fixed high electricity costs, requiring ongoing maintenance or replacement of wires and other components. In contrast, solar lighting has no electricity costs: solar lights are a one-time investment with no maintenance costs, and the investment can be recovered within three years, leading to long-term benefits.
Comparison Two: Safety Hazards of Conventional Electric Lighting
Conventional electric lighting poses safety risks due to factors such as construction quality, landscaping modifications, material aging, irregular power supply, and various infrastructural concerns. On the other hand, solar lighting has no hazards: solar lights operate at ultra-low voltage, ensuring reliability.
Comparison Three: Complex Installation of Conventional Electric Lighting
The installation process for conventional electric lighting is complicated; it involves extensive procedures such as laying cables, excavating cable trenches, threading wires, and backfilling, among many foundational tasks. Additionally, lengthy installation and debugging are required. If any line has an issue, extensive rework may be necessary, often complicated by terrain and high costs. In contrast, the installation of solar lights is simple: it requires no complicated wiring; just a cement base secured with stainless steel screws is sufficient.
