Solar street light project in Luwanda

‌Project Case Study: Large-Scale Solar Street Lighting System in Luwanda‌ ‌Client‌: Luwanda Municipal Authority ‌Contractor‌: KASN Lighting Solutions ‌Completion Date‌: Q3 2024
Solar street light project in Luwanda
Case Details

Project Overview

KASN successfully implemented a sustainable urban lighting solution across 23 communities in Luwanda, deploying ‌723 units of 10-meter dual-arm solar streetlights‌. This green energy project enhances nighttime safety while reducing municipal electricity costs by 100%, with estimated annual CO₂ reduction of 1,850 tons.


Technical Specifications

Component Specification Technical Advantage
Luminaire Dual-arm 60W LED lamps 130 lm/W efficacy, IP67 rated
Solar Panel 300W monocrystalline PERC modules 23.5% conversion efficiency
Energy Storage 150Ah LiFePO4 battery bank 5,000+ cycles @ 80% DOD
Pole Structure 10m hot-dip galvanized steel Wind resistance up to 45m/s
Control System Smart PWM controller 0-100% dimming + motion detection

Key Challenges & Solutions

  1. Harsh Environment

    • Challenge: Coastal salinity corrosion (Avg. RH 85%)
    • Solution: Triple-layer anti-corrosion coating + stainless steel fasteners
  2. Energy Reliability

    • Challenge: 4 consecutive rainy days autonomy requirement
    • Solution: Oversized 300W panel + intelligent energy allocation algorithm
  3. Installation Logistics

    • Challenge: Remote mountainous terrain access
    • Solution: Modular pre-assembly + drone-assisted site survey

Performance Metrics

  • Illumination Compliance‌: Exceeds EN 13201 M3 lighting class
  • System Autonomy‌: 6.8 days backup (vs. contractual 5 days)
  • Maintenance Reduction‌: Self-cleaning panel coating cuts O&M by 40%

Client Testimonial

"KASN's solution transformed our nightscapes sustainably. The smart dimming feature alone saves 18% more energy than projected, while their storm-resistant design withstood 3 typhoons in the first operational year."
– Mr. Alassane Diallo, Luwanda Urban Infrastructure Director


Project Significance

This landmark installation establishes Luwanda as West Africa's first fully solar-lit municipality, serving as a replicable model for SDG7 (Affordable Clean Energy) implementation. KASN completed the project 11 days ahead of schedule through BIM-assisted installation planning.
