Carmanah Receives $500,000 Purchase Order for Solar LED Bus Shelter Lighting Systems in London, England

Carmanah's proprietary energy-management technology is well suited to London's challenging solar environment, ensuring a reliable, year-round source of light in even the most adverse weather conditions. The solar powered shelter lights also offer distinct advantages over hardwired grid-based lighting systems, including easy installation, no scheduled maintenance, and the use of free, clean solar energy as a power source.

According to Art Aylesworth, Carmanah's CEO, solar power is emerging as the technology of choice for illuminating transit waiting areas. "Carmanah is pleased to continue providing solar-powered lighting technology for London Buses' solar illuminated bus stop project," said Aylesworth. "We've been involved with this initiative since 2001, and are proud to continue our relationship with Trueform as a technology partner to London Buses. We look forward to delivering more solutions to a growing client base of public transport authorities throughout Europe."

London is leading the way in the innovative use of solar energy for transit applications. Solar-powered LED lighting technology is increasingly preferred by councils and transport agencies throughout Europe and North America as an efficient and environmentally friendly way to enhance customer service, security and safety along bus routes without incurring significant installation costs and ongoing maintenance and operating costs.
