Solar street lights

LED Solar Street Lights

LED solar street lights offer a complete outdoor lighting solution, eliminating the need for a mains electricity connection or ground cable. The integrated solar panel charges the built-in battery during the day, after which the lamp automatically switches on at dusk. This makes solar street lighting ideally suited for locations where cabling is difficult, costly, or undesirable.

In our assortment, you will find LED solar street lights for applications such as driveways, car parks, industrial estates, cycle paths, parks, and communal outdoor spaces. Whether you need one lamp or a complete installation for a larger project, you will find models here that match the desired light output, pole diameter, and application.

When are solar street lights the right choice?

Solar street lights are most suitable when fixed cabling is practically unfeasible, or when you want to save on installation costs. Consider situations such as:

• Driveways or paths far from the meter cabinet or connection points
• Car parks or industrial estates where groundwork is too costly
• Parks, recreation areas, or campsites with limited infrastructure
• Temporary or seasonal lighting needs
• Projects where energy saving and sustainability are important considerations

Please note that the performance of solar lighting depends on the amount of sunlight. In the Netherlands, the light output in the winter months is lower than in the summer. Therefore, always choose a model with sufficient battery capacity for multiple dark nights and check the charging specifications per product.

Which LED solar street light suits your situation?

The choice of the right solar street light depends on a number of practical factors. Below you will find the most important selection criteria.

Light output and wattage

The larger the surface to be illuminated, the higher the required lumen value. For a narrow driveway or cycle path, a model with lower power is often sufficient. For a car park or industrial estate, you generally need a higher light output. Always compare the lumen value, not just the wattage, as this varies greatly per model.

Motion sensor or permanent light

Many solar street lights are equipped with an integrated motion sensor. The light then burns at a lower level when no one passes by, and switches to full power as soon as movement is detected. This significantly extends the burning time and is a smart choice in many outdoor situations. Models without a sensor burn all night at a fixed intensity.

IP rating and weather resistance

For outdoor applications in the Netherlands, good weather resistance is essential. Pay attention to the IP rating of the product. An IP65 classification or higher is sufficient for most outdoor applications. Check the product page for the exact IP rating per model.

Pole diameter and mounting options

Solar street lights are typically mounted on a pole. Pay attention to the recommended pole diameter and the included or separately available brackets. Some models can also be wall-mounted. Check per product which mounting options are available.
