New Generation Solar Lighting Solutions

This course is no longer active. AEC Daily will not report completion information for this course.

Solar lighting solutions require a level of due diligence to determine a good fit between customer, product, and vendor. This course provides an overview of the factors that require consideration when specifying an outdoor solar lighting system. Also discussed are the components, features, and benefits of the newest generation of off-grid, self-contained solar lighting that offers a cost-effective solution for an expanding number of applications.

Upon completion of this course, the Learner should be able to:

  • Discuss the history, the market challenges, and the opportunities related to the solar lighting industry.
  • Describe the components of solar lighting systems, including batteries, LEDs, optics, and types of solar lighting controllers.
  • State the economic advantages and the sustainable benefits of off-grid solar lighting and how it can contribute to the achievement of LEED® credits.
  • Assess the right solar lighting solution based on site considerations, illumination requirements, and economics, and compare the installation considerations, costs, and aesthetics of distributed solar lighting versus self-contained solar lighting systems with predictive adaption technology.

Approximately 1 hour. Delivered online, at your own pace.
