At a time when the energy transition is at the heart of concerns, especially in areas where insecurity reigns, particularly in several districts and streets of Goma, the capital of the province of North Kivu, the installation of solar-powered streetlamps appears to be an appropriate and forward-looking solution for the city and certain isolated areas. They embody more responsible energy management than just lighting. Indeed, street lighting is essential for the safety and comfort of city dwellers, making a significant contribution to the night-time atmosphere.
Why is it important to choose solar street lamps to light our streets at night?
Solar streetlights, powered by solar energy, are an environmentally-friendly and cost-effective lighting solution. They use photovoltaic panels to capture the sun's energy during the day, store it and then use it to light the streets at night. This energy autonomy not only reduces insecurity, but also ensures constant lighting, even in the event of power cuts. This system is particularly advantageous in remote areas and regions where the electricity grid is underdeveloped, reducing dependence on traditional electrical infrastructures.
Always at the forefront
Committed to change, innovation and economic development, GoShop Energy, always at the forefront of ecological solutions, recently installed 7 solar-powered streetlights along the EGENE SERUFULI road in Goma, demonstrating its ongoing commitment to sustainable, environmentally-friendly street lighting solutions. The installation has been designed to improve visibility and road safety while respecting the environment by providing an economical, ecological and sustainable solution. Thanks to solar technology, these streetlights are self-sufficient, guaranteeing constant, reliable lighting regardless of weather conditions and without straining the local power grid. This project is part of the Bright Cities approach, which seeks to use innovative solutions to improve citizens' quality of life while respecting the principles of sustainability.
This project to install seven (7) streetlights offers a number of advantages, including
1. Support for the environment: These street lamps reduce the carbon footprint by using clean energy, thus helping to combat global warming.
2. Improving safety: By lighting the EGENE SERUFULI road, GoShop Energy is helping to reduce the risk of accidents and make night-time journeys safer for motorists and pedestrians.
3. Energy autonomy: Independence from the local electricity grid ensures reliable lighting, even in the event of power cuts.
Mounting solar streetlights is more than just a technological advance: it's a step towards more responsible management of natural resources and an infrastructure model. GoShop Energy's project illustrates how a small initiative can have a big impact on the sustainability of public infrastructures.
By combining innovation, economy and ecology, solar-powered street lamps are establishing themselves as a real lighting solution for lighted cities. And this is just the beginning. More and more projects of this kind will emerge, transforming our urban and rural spaces into greener, safer environments, while contributing to the energy transition.
