Solar Lighting by DW Windsor
Vital to all life on earth, the sun is an abundant source of natural energy. Every hour, the amount of power that reaches our planet from the sun is greater than the entire world consumes in a year.
Solar power offers virtually unlimited clean, renewable energy sources – and this relatively untapped resource is increasingly considered the future-facing solution to support our growing energy needs.
With no need for cabling or connection to the grid, solar-powered lighting provides the opportunity to bring light to any location, making it ideal for remote or environmentally sensitive applications. And with minimal ongoing maintenance costs, capitalising on the benefits of solar lighting can deliver against a range of carbon reduction and financial targets.

Why solar?
With no need for cabling or connection to the grid, solar-powered lighting provides the opportunity to bring light to any location, making it ideal for remote or environmentally sensitive applications. With minimal ongoing costs, capitalising on the benefits of solar lighting can deliver against a range of carbon reduction and financial targets.
Solar-based lighting has numerous benefits, from accessing a clean energy source with no ongoing electricity costs to only offering light when needed. The UK's commitment to reach Net Zero Carbon by 2050 means there is greater pressure to reduce our carbon footprint. At the same time, this is offset to provide adequate illumination for the safety and comfort of people.
Solar lighting in the UK
There is a misconception that the UK does not receive enough sunlight to make solar lighting a viable solution. This is simply not the case, and developments in lighting technology, such as the use of intelligent control systems and integrated motion sensors, help to manage light and battery levels – prolonging the available hours of illumination, even in the longest winter nights.
As a solutions provider, DW Windsor is able to provide a wide variety of solar street lighting options – from integrated options to a system solution with a customisable approach to suit the specific needs of our customers’ geography and location. This is backed by the associated benefits that come with all of DW Windsor’s solutions.
