Integrated Solar Street Lights Components

When you purchase an all-in-one solar street light, it comes in one compact package but has several components. From the word itself “integrated” or “all-in-one”, these components are individually made then corporated to make an innovative product which is a solar street light.  Generally, an integrated solar street light has four main components, they are solar panels, LED fixture/source, batteries, and mounting pole.

Solar Panel

Solar panels are one of the most essential components of an all-in-one solar street light. These panels are responsible for emitting sunlight and converting the gathered solar energy into electricity. When it comes to solar panels, you have two options to choose from. The two main types of solar panels available in the global market are mono-crystalline & poly-crystalline. Both of these panels convert solar energy, the only difference is the conversion rate and efficiency of polycrystalline solar panels are low compared to monocrystalline solar panels. Thus, if you need high power capacity, the latter one is the right panel for you.
