Why Choose SolarVision Solar Lighting? Key Advantages Explained

As sustainable practices become more permanent for urban developments, solar lighting has become an essential part of infrastructure planning for councils and developers across the UK. At SolarVision, we’ve been installing solar lighting since 2015, and today, our vertical SOLARWRAP® streetlights are trusted by the UK’s top councils and developers for one simple reason, they work!

But what makes SolarVision different?

1. Solar Experts, Not Just Lighting Providers

Many of our competitors are traditional lighting companies that have recently added solar products to their range. At SolarVision, solar is our niche. We understand the science and real performance of solar yields. Lighting is the easy part; making solar work 365 days a year in the UK climate is where our expertise gets proven.

2. Unmatched Technical Performance

Our SOLARWRAP® products are engineered to meet and often exceed the performance of traditional LED streetlights. Unlike other solar lighting systems, which often underdeliver on brightness, reliability, and battery life, our lights are designed to match the requirements for your projects. In schemes we have previously designed, our solar lights have even reduced the number of columns required due to the output and performance of the SOLARWRAP® lights.

3. Off-Grid and Hybrid

SolarVision installations are typically 100% off-grid. That means no trenching, no cabling, no energy bills, and no power cuts. Whether you're illuminating a skate park, a new housing development, or a rural footpath, our solar lights offer total independence from the grid, reducing both your costs and carbon footprint.

Hybrid installations are necessary when certain Highway categories such as P3, P4 are a requirement, the hybrid offers the right light with lower electricity bills up 75% less than a fully grid solution, which could mean the difference between having the light on or off.

4. Trusted by the UK’s Top Councils and Developers

Over the last decade, we’ve worked with the largest councils and developers across the UK. Our reputation is based on our service and product results: durable, high-spec lighting solutions that work, even through the winter months. With repeated business from many of our clients, we have always offered a high quality of both guidance and advice for every project we are involved in. References can be organised upon request.
