A US based high-tech equipment designer and manufacturer has equipped one of its employee car parks with solar powered LED lights. The EverGEN 1520 light systems, from Carmanah Technologies, are designed for industrial-scale street and parking applications and do not require cabling or grid access. The lights feature a ‘dark-sky friendly’ full cutoff design which ensures to deliver light only where needed, while reducing outdoor lighting challenges such as glare, spillover and skyglow, says Carmanah. The system can boast no scheduled maintenance for five years, and so is expected to reduce maintenance costs as well as eliminating utility costs for illuminating the car park.
