In Depth Comparison: Solar Street Light VS. Traditional Street Light

What is the difference between traditional and Solar street light Prices? Clodesun will analyze the cost of the two types of street lights clearly this time. In order to solve this problem, our company’s senior engineer team collected various aspects of knowledge to analyze the cost of traditional street lighting systems and solar street lights.

If you do a quick research of the market, you will find that because the US government and world leaders are promoting renewable energy, solar street lights have rapidly become popular and grow rapidly in the past 7 years. More and more countries now advocate the use of solar renewable energy for lighting instead of traditional lighting.

Following is the analysis of the cost of the two types of street lights.

 

What is the price of traditional street light?

Traditional street lighting obtains electricity by connecting to a standard power grid. The average cost of traditional street lamps (including lighting fixtures, poles, and lamp holders) is $120 per lamp. Although the cost of lamps is lower, traditional street lights need to be connected to the grid, which requires slotting and underground wiring. If added the labor costs for trenching and wiring, the cost per meter for consumers in this process is about US$40.

Then, the average cost of traditional lighting slotting and connection will be about 3,200 US dollars, which is much higher than the price of solar street lights. Moreover, traditional solar street lights are not energy-saving. You can imagine how much coal is consumed for 12 hours a day.

What is the price of solar street lights?

Solar street lights obtain electricity through the process of solar panels absorbing solar energy, which converts light into usable voltage. Solar street lights (solar panels, batteries, controllers, inverters, lamp heads) require advanced technology, so the price is higher, on average about 330 US dollars per light.

Solar street lights do not need to be connected to the power grid, they are separated from the main grid system and can be installed in remote locations. So clients can avoid the long and expensive process of slotting and wiring. Therefore, the total cost of the solar street lighting system is greatly reduced.

The price of solar street lights makes customers feel more expensive than traditional street lights initially, but when you carefully study their total cost details. You will find that the biggest difference between the price of traditional lights and solar lights is trenching, installation, maintenance, and electrical bill costs rather than just the cost of street lighting.

 

Conclusion

When comparing the total cost of traditional street lighting and solar street lighting, it is clear to distinguish who is the winner. Overall, the cost of solar street lights in 5 years is about 4,800 US dollars, while the cost of traditional street lights is as high as 8,800 US dollars, which is due to the cost of trenching and installation.

As above, this is only the cost for one street light. If one project needs to install 100 sets of street lights, and 200 sets of street lights, obviously, solar street lights are more cost-effective.

If there is a road that needs to be installed with a lighting system, will you choose traditional street lights or solar integrated street lights? If you just think that the cost of the product, maybe solar street lights is more expensive, you are wrong. Taking all the costs together, it is obvious that solar lights can win the cost battle of street lights. If you want to learn more about solar street lights, please follow the Clodesun blog.

solar street light quality in China

Solar street light price in Nigeria

Since 2016, ClodeSun has become a top Solar Street Light Supplier in Nigeria.

Nigeria has the world’s largest market for solar-led street lights, and the solar street light price in Nigeria competition is very fierce these years.

Many Nigerian traders import all-in-one solar street lights from China, Jiangsu, Shenzhen, Zhongshan, and Yangzhou, There is a very large solar street light market in Lagos Nigeria, which specializes in sells solar street lights.

1. solar street light price in Nigeria survey

Nigeria is the world’s largest market for solar street lights because Nigeria is the largest economic country in Africa, but Nigeria’s electricity is very scarce, and the power supply is very backward. According to the calculations of Nigeria’s power department, about 55% of Nigeria’s residents have no electricity available. It has become one of the main problems hindering the economic development of Nigeria, so the market for solar street lights in Nigeria is very large.

These dealers are very sensitive to the price of solar street lights. There are also many solar street light engineering companies. Their solar street light projects are cover all over Africa. They pay more attention to the quality of solar street lights but not just the low price.

2. solar street light price in Nigeria analysis

There are two types of solar street lights, split solar street lights and integrated solar street lights. Now 90% of the market needs are split solar street lights. Integrated solar street lights account for about 10%, but the demand for integrated street lights every year All is increasing and may reach 20% in the next few years.

The price of integrated solar street lights is relatively higher than that of split solar street lights. Because integrated solar street lights are of better quality and easier to install, they are more and more popular with consumers. In other countries, most of them choose to use split solar street lights, but in Nigeria, more and more customers choose to use integrated solar street lights, so integrated street lights are getting better and better in the Nigerian market.

However, consumers in Nigeria prefer solar street lights at relatively low prices. They are not particularly concerned about the quality of solar street lights. Nigeria’s civilian market is very sensitive to the price of solar street lights.

Therefore, many traders are working in China in order to obtain higher profits. Zhongshan, Yangzhou, Jiangsu, and other places import very cheap solar street lights. In fact, the quality of these solar street lights is very poor. Usually, the solar street lights do not light up in less than half a year, and their life expectancy will not exceed two years.

3. why the solar street light price in Nigeria is very cheap

Because Nigerian customers want to buy solar street lights at the lowest price, solar street light manufacturers just have very low profits. Therefore, in order to get higher profits, solar street light manufacturers have to reduce the configuration of solar street lights or use very poor materials.

Although the price of solar street light products is very cheap, the quality is very poor. Many Nigerian consumers don’t know that they just see the appearance of solar street lights and they all look the same, so they are more willing to buy cheap solar street lights, which leads to very chaos in the industry, Even many consumers think that the quality of solar street lights is very bad, and they are no longer willing to buy solar street lights.

This idea is actually wrong. In fact, the technology of solar street lights is very mature now. A good quality solar street light can last for more than five years, and some can last for 8-10 years, but usually, the price of such high-quality solar street lights is not very cheap.

We have several customers from Nigerian engineering companies. When they find us, they don’t ask for the price of solar street lights but visit our factory first. After we exchange some technical parameters, they will come to our production area. , Test the parameters and quality of our solar panels, lithium batteries, controllers, and then talk about the price of solar street lights.

solar street lights price

After customers have tested the accessories and materials of our solar street lights, they know that we are using the best materials, so they are not very sensitive to the price, but the quality requirements are indeed very high, and the after-sales service requirements are also particularly high.

Conclusion:
Although the solar street light market in Nigeria is very large, the price of solar street lights is in a mess. most solar street lights in Nigeria in very poor quality, and the price is very low.

clodesun hope that Nigerian customers will change their views and care more about the quality of solar street lights not just be careful about the lower price of the product in the future.

    integrated solar led street light price

    Integrated solar led street light price?

    Although the integrated solar led street lights price is higher than traditional street lights, it is energy-saving and does not need maintenance frequently. that is why the current traditional street lights are replaced by integrated solar street lights.

    Integrated solar street light

    With its energy-saving and environmentally friendly features, integrated solar led street lights have been admired by people in recent years. They are charged during the day and illuminated at night without the need to lay complicated wires and pipes.

More resources are in line with the development concept of green earth, energy-saving, and emission reduction.

    The most important part of the procurement process is to judge the price list of integrated solar led street lights. First, we must take a rough look at the price of solar street lights, and then analyze in-depth, analyze the cost, configuration, value, and other aspects of solar products to see if the price list of solar street lights provided by solar street light manufacturers is true.

    Integrated Solar street lights may have the same price and different configurations; there are also the same configurations, but the prices are different. Under these circumstances, we have to analyze and judge the price list of integrated solar street lights, following three points:

    1. Is the configuration of the integrated solar led street light price list complete?

    All in one solar led street light

    During the procurement process, solar street light buyers will ask solar street light manufacturers for a solar street light price list. The complete solar street light price list should have the basic information of the solar street light manufacturer.

    Followed by the product description, which includes the total number of products. Prices, price details, pictures, materials, dimensions, specifications, etc., and also pay attention to the product’s warranty description and delivery form. The more complete the solar-led street light quotation table, the more trustworthy it is.

    2. Is the configuration of integrated solar led street lights price reasonable?

    In addition, to check whether the solar street light quotation table is complete, it also depends on whether the solar street light configuration is reasonable. The configuration of the solar street light is communicated in advance between the purchaser and the manufacturer because the solar street light manufacturer makes a reasonable configuration according to the needs of the purchaser, and the configured combination must meet the needs of users without excessive waste.

    3. Compare several integrated solar led street light manufacturers price

    If the price list of integrated solar led street lights is complete and the configuration is reasonable, the next step is to look at the price of solar street lights. You can find different manufacturers with the same configuration for comparison. If the price quoted by the solar street light manufacturer is significantly lower than the market reasonable price, it indicates that the product itself will have some problems, and the price is higher than the market reasonable price and will not be considered cost-effective, so we must carefully consider before making a decision.

    Integrated Solar street lights are developing in the direction of high quality and high added value, but it is inevitable that some manufacturers will shoddy, so you must be careful when purchasing, and you must follow the above points when choosing to avoid falling The trap of product quality.
