Two pole materials, multiple outdoor finishes
Select aluminum for a lightweight, corrosion-resistant structure or stainless steel for a premium appearance and demanding exposure conditions. Both materials can be matched to project colour and architectural requirements. For the aluminum shaft option: powder coating is 80 µm standard (available range: 80–120 µm), and anodizing is 20 µm standard (available range: 15–25 µm). Stainless-steel finishes are specified separately.
For the aluminum shaft option: 20 µm standard anodizing, available range 15–25 µm.
Most requested for urban and architectural projects
Fine texture, hides dust and handling marks
Standard municipal specification in EU tenders
Parks, resorts, pedestrian zones
Available in the full RAL color range
Every component is arranged for energy capture, protection and service access
A solar light pole must support both structural and electrical equipment. Panel position, cable routing, battery protection and access points are coordinated during design.
Material matched to the environment
Aluminum is selected when low weight and corrosion resistance are priorities; stainless steel is available for premium architectural or severe-exposure projects.
Stable panel mounting
The panel bracket is designed for the specified panel size, tilt angle and wind load, with adjustable orientation where required.
Protected cable route
Solar and luminaire cables run inside the pole wherever possible, with deburred entries and protected connections.
Accessible battery compartment
The battery and controller can be arranged in a lockable pole compartment, external cabinet or underground cabinet.
Ground-line and foundation detail
Anchor-base and direct-burial options are available, with isolation and drainage details selected for the site.
Replaceable system components
Panels, controllers, batteries and LED modules can be specified as serviceable components for long-term maintenance.
Configure lighting output, autonomy and control around the site
The correct solar system is determined by sunlight, operating hours, rainy-season performance, panel orientation, battery location and maintenance access.
| Configuration | Suitable applications | Options |
|---|---|---|
| Basic standalone system | Paths, parks and low-traffic areas | Fixed schedule, LiFePO₄ battery |
| High-autonomy system | Regions with long rainy seasons | Larger panel and battery capacity |
| Motion-dimming system | Residential streets and pathways | Full output plus standby dimming |
| Remote-monitoring system | Municipal and distributed assets | GSM / 4G / LoRa communication |
| Hybrid solar system | Sites requiring backup power | Solar priority with grid assistance |
| Custom control system | Smart-city and tender projects | Protocol and controller matched to specification |
Where aluminum and stainless steel solar poles are installed
Reliable lighting where grid power is unavailable, costly or difficult to install
Aluminum poles are suitable for lightweight, corrosion-resistant installations. Stainless steel poles are preferred where appearance, impact resistance or demanding exposure conditions require a more robust architectural finish.
Rural roads
5–8 m · standalone solar
Residential streets
6–10 m · motion dimming
Parks and pathways
4–6 m · aluminum or stainless steel
Car parks
6–10 m · higher battery autonomy
Coastal promenades
Stainless steel 316 or protected aluminum
Campuses and resorts
4–8 m · architectural finish
One pole platform, two materials and a complete off-grid lighting system
Solar projects are affected by material selection, sunlight, battery autonomy, wind load and maintenance access. We configure the pole and electrical system together so the complete installation is matched to the site.
Two-way lighting from one pole
Two luminaires serve opposite carriageways or adjacent zones from one foundation, simplifying the lighting layout and installation plan.
Symmetrical or unequal arms
Specify identical arms for balanced lighting or different outreach and tilt on each side for unequal road widths and site boundaries.
Standalone operation
Operate without long underground power runs where grid connection is unavailable or costly.
Independent arm replacement
Each arm can be removed separately. A damaged arm or upgraded luminaire can be replaced without disturbing the shaft or foundation.
Fewer foundations and cable points
One pole can serve two lighting directions, helping reduce foundations, trench connections and installation work on suitable layouts.
Compact export packing
Both arms ship detached and nested flat, avoiding projecting sections and improving protection during container transport.
One manufacturing partner for the pole and solar lighting system
