Applications for Solar Lighting Kits

Among the many applications of solar energy, a stand-alone solar lighting system is a versatile application because it helps serve multiple purposes. Solar lighting kits use specialized solar panels that can provide enough energy to power single or multiple bulbs.

These are supplied in kit form and users can easily assemble them. Solar lighting systems can be used for a variety of applications, including outdoor lighting, emergency lighting, backyard lighting, street lighting, traffic signals and sidewalk lighting. Due to the self-contained nature of these kits, solar lighting kits effectively facilitate these applications. 

Basic Components of Solar Lighting Kits

In general, a solar lighting kit comprises a solar panel, rechargeable battery, charge controller unit, inverter and cables. The specifications of the kit could change depending on the type of applications and the number of lamps to be powered. For instance, two solar panels could be used to light up two single bulbs of smaller wattage or one bulb of larger wattage.

Solar panels include photovoltaic (PV) cells, which have the ability to absorb sunlight and convert it into electricity through the photovoltaic effect, which can be used to light electric bulbs.

Applications for Solar Lighting Kits

Street LightingSolar lighting kits are particularly useful in street lighting because of their ability to act as a stand-alone solar light source. Components of solar lighting kits for street lighting include solar panels, LED bulbs, charge controllers, rechargeable batteries, and light poles. The specifications of the components may vary depending on the application. For example, to light a 20 W LED lamp in an efficient solar street lighting system, a 60 W solar panel and an 80 Ah battery are required.

Lighting Solar lighting for homes using solar lighting kits is easy and convenient because of its simplicity. The single-light home solar lighting kits offered in India typically include a solar panel that produces 10 W of power, a 7 Ah battery, a 6 A solar charge controller and a 5 W light bulb. The system uses solar energy during the day and can run for for the whole night.

Traffic light 

Solar lighting kits are ideal for traffic signals, as they are also stand-alone systems. Here, too, the kit includes solar panels, LED bulbs, charge controller, rechargeable batteries and poles. In these systems, no inverter is needed, as the DC power generated by the solar panel can be used directly to power the LED bulbs used in the traffic signals.

Portable Lighting Kits 

Solar lighting kits are useful as emergency lights or portable lights. Portable solar lighting systems use solar power to recharge and can be used as emergency lights when needed. These lights can also be used for picnics, camping and other outdoor activities. Typically, these kits offer a power output in the range of 3 – 10 W and come with rechargeable batteries.
