Ultimate application of Hybrid solar street light

With the government's support for green energy, solar street lights are widely used in many countries. According to China's import and export data, 73% of the street lights exported to Southeast Asia and Africa are solar street lights. In China's new rural construction, 91% of street lighting projects use solar street lights.


Since solar street lights sell so well, why does Soaring Lighting still design and promote the hybrid solar street lights? Where is the hybrid solar street light mainly used? In this article, we will make the answers.



1.What is hybrid solar street light?

Generally speaking, a hybrid solar street light means a solar-wind hybrid. But here, we are talking about a solar street light connected to the grid, that is solar-electricity hybrid street light or AC-DC hybrid street light.


In this lighting system, there are two inputs, one is solar and the other is electricity. Lights will use solar as a priority, and only when the battery is empty, lights use the grid electricity automatically.



Working principle:

1.When the sun shines during the day, the solar panel converts solar energy to electrical energy and stores it in the battery.
2.During the night, the battery is discharged, releasing electrical energy to power the LED light.
3.If the battery is not adequately charged or it drains out during the night, solar hybrid input will kick in automatically.



2.How does the hybrid solar street light work under diverse conditions?


hybrid solar street light work under different conditions

1. On sunny days, the solar panel charges the battery, and the battery discharges at night to power the LED luminaire. AC electricity does not need to kick in.


2. On cloudy days, the solar panel cannot charge the battery. After the battery drains out, AC electricity kicks in automatically to power the LED luminaire.


3. On rainy and snowy days, the solar panel can only convert little solar energy to electrical energy. After the battery drains out, AC electricity kicks in automatically.



3.What’s the benefits of the hybrid solar street light?


  • Let your solar street light work all year round;
  • Double guarantee for solar street lights in critical areas;
  • New opportunities for areas with long rain season or winter;
  • Smart solution to replace the old LED street light;
  • Minimize emissions and scale up the use of renewables


4. Where does the hybrid solar street light mainly used?


  • Critical areas (Main roads, highways, bridges) lighting with high lighting requirements.
  • Areas with a strong sun in summer but have a long rain season or winter, like Europe and the United States.
  • Areas want to use solar street lights to replace the LED street light to save electricity bills.




Although the hybrid solar street lights have a small market, it is still the best choice for some critical area lighting project. If you have a lighting project that needs to use hybrid solar street light, please contact soaring lighting. We have many years of experience and have done many projects, we are confident to give you an intelligent solution.
