In addition, solar car park lights work by converting solar energy to electricity, so you need not pay high electricity bills for a long time. When solar energy is sufficient, the solar lights will store it and discharge to illuminate when it is dark.

PBOX solar car park lights are equipped with high conversion solar panels, high efficiency LED chips and smart control system. Which can make the lights work normally in rainy days and have a long service life.

Outdoor Solar Lighting Project in UAE Abu-Dhabi

Masdar City, UAE

The world’s first zero-carbon renewable energy city being built in Abu- Dhabi envisions functioning on its own grid with full carbon neutrality. There are no light switches or water taps in the city; movement sensors control lighting and water to cut electricity and water consumption by 51 and 55 percent respectively.

In response to the project’s commitment to zero carbon, zero waste, and other environmentally friendly goals, WWF and BioRegional have endorsed Masdar City as an official One Planet Living Community.

What do Chinese consumers know about lighting technology? Or ask another question: how much do Chinese consumers think they know about lighting technology? Do they know how to purchase the corresponding watts number of lighting products according to the color temperature and lumens they need? Do they know that light has biological effects? In the “landvance international consumer research” survey, including a representative survey of more than 2000 Chinese consumers, people still lack enough understanding of many aspects of current and future lighting technologies. Landward Vance hopes to end people’s confusion about lighting through the international day tomorrow.

The United Nations Educational, scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has announced that May 16th is the “international tomorrow”, the purpose of which is to give people all over the world the importance of lighting and lighting technology. What level of knowledge do Chinese consumers think of their own knowledge of light? What caused such a serious problem? What do they think about the problems of future lighting technology? Recently, a representative study by Research Now, representing landward Vance, has provided answers to the above questions. “LED technology can bring a lot of benefits. But for consumers, how to choose a suitable light source or luminaire has become more and more complex. This is also an indisputable fact. Moreover, the European Union has issued a ban on a number of inefficient lighting products, which once again made the situation even more confusing. Such complexity and uncertainty are reflected in our findings. Mr. Lin Xincheng, general manager of Greater China, LED, a global lighting company, explains.

Little knowledge of the basic unit of lighting

Most consumers think they know a lot, but that’s not the case. 65% of Chinese consumers, in answering the questionnaire, expressed their full understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of various lighting technologies, or at least well understood, including the understanding of (intelligent) LED lighting products to the traditional incandescent lamps.

Landward investigation shows that consumers still have many misconceptions about lighting technology.

Landward’s 2017 “international consumer lighting research” conducted by 2011 respondents.

When asked about the problem of measurement units, for example, for those units that have long been printed on light sources and light fixtures, the cognition is immediately clear: 78% of Chinese consumers can connect Watt and electricity consumption correctly. For “color temperature” and “lumen” and other important units of measurement of LED products, only about half of the respondents (58% and 61%) are able to have the right cognition.

The reason for this problem is that “color temperature provides color information about light, such as daylight (greater than 5300K), white light (3300K to 5300K) and warm white light (less than 2700K), according to the general manager of Lin Xin, a large China region. Lumens in lumens tell people how much light is emitted by lamps. Therefore, for high-efficiency LED lighting products, the key value of luminance is not wattage, but lumen number.

It is worth noting that the accuracy rate of German respondents in identifying these units is lower than that in all other countries. Of all the respondents in Germany, only 33% could make the right choice among all the measurement units. Among respondents in the UK, France, Sweden, the United States, Canada, Brazil and China, the proportion of these measuring units could be correctly identified from 40% to 50%. The correct rate of respondents in Italy reached 55%, which was the highest among all respondents.

5G Technology on Smart Solar Lighting

The next generation wireless technology is undoubtedly playing the leading role by 5G. It is not only the direction of the development of smart phone communication, but also the future wireless highway. 5G technology is at least 100 times faster than 4G. It can live video with almost zero lag time and download a complete movie in a few seconds, and we don’t have to worry about speed with the high resolution trends of visual effects. 5G technology is actually a great leap forward, bringing new revolution to all industries.

Since life was born on the earth, solar power is the main energy source for it. Solar power is also vitally important for the human being to survive.

A Purdue University LED team developed new material and the manufacturing process. It was reported that this new material could use solar energy as heat energy, more efficient while generating electricity. This innovation is a great step for the cost of competition between fossil fuel and solar thermal power generation.

‘It is cheaper than storing energy via battery if storing solar energy as heat’, Purdue’s Reilly Professor of Material Engineering Kenneth Sandhage said. The next step would be to reduce the cost of generating electricity from the sun’s heat, he added. This research at Purdue has co-operated with the Georgia Institute of Technology, the University of Wisconsin-Madison and Oak Ridge National Laboratory. It was published on journal Nature.

In concentrated solar power plants, solar power is converted into electricity through the mirrors or lenses to concentrate the light onto a small area which will generate heat energy and transfer to a molten salt. Then, the heat from the molten salt is transferred to a working fluid, supercritical CO2 which will expand and spin a turbine for generating electricity.

Professor Sandhage concluded that man-made carbon dioxide emission would be reduced drastically from electricity production. So, the carbon dioxide that will cause global warming could contribute to reducing the carbon footprint from the electricity generation.

The 200MW solar plant will begin construction in summer 2019 in Alcalá de Guadaira, Seville. The plant will be connected to the grid in 2020 to power 105,000 households.

The 300MW solar project will be deployed in later in 2019 in the Extremadura region of Talayuela in Spain, for integration with the main grid in 2020 to meet the needs of more than 150,000 homes.

Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman of Canadian Solar, commented, ‘We are very proud to partner with Solarcentury in one of the largest solar power projects in Europe, which is set to be built without subsidy in the country. This partnership further expands our presence and competitive position in this region.’
