Solar Roadway Lighting Systems for Infrastructure and Municipal Projects

LIKELITE provides engineered solar roadway lighting systems for municipal roads, urban streets, secondary roads, public infrastructure and other outdoor lighting applications where reliable illumination and controlled energy consumption are required.

Our solar lighting solutions combine LED roadway luminaires, photovoltaic power systems, battery storage, intelligent lighting controls and lighting design support into one project-oriented solution. The system can be configured according to roadway conditions, operating schedules, local climate, required illumination levels and project specifications.

Engineered Solar Lighting, Not Standard Product Supply

For large-scale solar roadway lighting Projects, selecting a solar street light only by wattage is not sufficient. System performance depends on the relationship between LED output, solar panel capacity, battery storage, charging conditions, operating hours, dimming strategy and environmental conditions.

LIKELITE approaches solar roadway lighting from the complete system perspective.

Typical engineering considerations include:

  • Road width and classification

  • Pole height and spacing

  • Required illumination and uniformity

  • Daily operating hours

  • Solar irradiation conditions

  • Battery capacity and autonomy requirements

  • Seasonal charging conditions

  • Intelligent dimming and control schedules

  • Local temperature and weather conditions

  • Installation and maintenance requirements

This allows the lighting system to be configured for the actual application rather than treated as a single standardized product.

Solar Roadway Lighting System Configuration

The LIKELITE LED Solar Roadway Lights used for infrastructure applications integrate high-efficiency LED lighting, Mono-Si solar technology, battery storage and intelligent control.

Lighting Design and Engineering Support

Solar roadway lighting performance starts with the lighting design.

LIKELITE supports project teams with engineering design services before production and delivery. Depending on project requirements, the design workflow can include:

  • Lighting and circuitry design

  • Onsite metering

  • DIALux Evo layout

  • LitePro DLX layout

  • AutoCAD layout

  • AGi32 layout

  • Pole spacing evaluation

  • Lighting distribution analysis

  • Illumination and uniformity assessment

  • Solar and battery configuration review

The purpose is to establish a technically suitable lighting configuration before mass production.

Intelligent Solar Lighting Control

Solar lighting systems need to manage available energy throughout the operating cycle.

The LIKELITE system can integrate:

Microwave Motion Sensor + Light Control + Timer Control

This allows the lighting system to operate according to environmental conditions, programmed schedules and movement on the roadway.

Typical control logic can include:

Daytime → Solar Charging → Evening Activation → Scheduled Dimming → Motion-Based Lighting → Late-Night Energy Management → Morning Shutdown

The exact control strategy can be adjusted according to project requirements.

Energy-Saving Performance

Solar roadway lighting reduces dependence on conventional grid electricity while intelligent control can further reduce unnecessary lighting operation.

For the referenced Thessaloniki, Greece application, the project specification indicates an expected 20% energy-saving improvement.

Actual energy performance depends on:

  • Lighting operating schedule

  • Solar radiation

  • Battery configuration

  • Dimming profile

  • Traffic and pedestrian activity

  • Pole arrangement

  • Roadway lighting requirements

LIKELITE therefore evaluates energy-saving performance as part of the complete lighting system rather than using LED wattage alone as the performance indicator.
