BEKA Schréder Launches Solar Lighting Solution for Road and Urban Applications

  • The BEKA SOLAR has been optimised to offer the most customizable solar solution for road and urban applications.
  • The locally designed and manufactured solar street light for outdoor residential and public applications gives a full customizable option to suit all off-grid solar lighting requirements.

The BEKA SOLAR, combined with the ZIYA luminaire, provides a reliable lighting solution with a high Ingress Protection level (IP 65) that withstands high ambient temperatures and vandalism (IK 10).

The ZIYA range is also a sustainable off-grid performer with a superior lumen/watt ratio.

The photovoltaic process is optimized by efficient Polycrystalline solar module technology to maximise solar energy. This in turn offers the best energy storage options and autonomy available on the market with our range of battery options, namely Lead, Lithium and the new SuperCapacitor. This SuperCapacitor removes the depth of discharge (DOD) issues, and furthermore offers extended life and discharge cycles.

Controlling the whole system and using this solar energy by programming the MPPT charge controllers protects and optimizes the system from any internal and external factors, like thermal environmental changes when charging the batteries.

The BEKA SOLAR offers the following key advantages:

  • It has been designed to operate reliably at a high light output over a 12 to 14 hour period
  • It has sufficient autonomy to cater for up to four continuous overcast or rainy days, to continue its reliable night operation
  • Integrated solar components
  • Theft and vandal resistant
  • Specifically engineered for all geographical locations in Africa
  • Various battery technologies available to meet specific customer requirements

The BEKA SOLAR offers the renewable lighting solution to cover your geographical and application needs with extended lifetime and optimization.

Green Building Africa promotes the need for net carbon zero buildings and cities in Africa. We are fiercely independent and encourage outlying thinkers to contribute to the #netcarbonzero movement. Climate change is upon us and now is the time to react in a more diverse and broader approach to sustainability in the built environment. We challenge architects, property developers, urban planners, renewable energy professionals and green building specialists. We also challenge the funding houses and regulators and the role they play in facilitating investment into green projects. Lastly, we explore and investigate new technology and real-time data to speed up the journey in realising a net carbon zero environment for our children.
