Solar PV for Outdoor and Traffic Lighting

Solar street lighting systems basically consist of a PV panel, inverter and storage battery connected to a light source. It can replace the conventional outdoor lighting system and operate for more than 8 hours a day. These systems have been installed in many industrial complexes and metro cities such as Delhi and Mumbai. The cost of solar street lighting would vary from Rs 18,000 to Rs 21,000 per system. These systems can be fitted with automatic sensors, which would turn the lights on/off depending on the intensity of natural light.

Thanks for the tips, but I'll go with NDR Outdoor lights for my next improvement.
