The City of Tournefeuille, west of Toulouse, has recently created an additional cycle route in its municipality, with the aim of improving the network of its cycle paths and in particular to connect them to the city’s high school. In order to carry out this project and in coherence with its energy and ecological commitments, the City Hall, through the intermediary of the Departmental Union of Energy in the Haute-Garonne region, turned to Sunna Design’s solar solutions and their lighting system which is efficient, practical, and in line with the new challenges of urban development.

After creating a cycle path linking the Hauts de Tournefeuille area to the Quéfets area, the City Hall immediately addressed the issue of lighting, the path being used daily by high school students, runners and walkers. The lighting project was entrusted to the Departmental Union of Energy in the Haute-Garonne region, which itself selected the Citeos company for the intervention.
For these 800 meters of track, a dozen of solar street lamps for the UP2 range were deployed. Laura Dintilhac, Business Manager at Citeos, testifies to the satisfaction of her teams: “The ease of intervention was really appreciated by the field teams, which allowed the municipality to have a safe installation for our teams, an installation without discomfort for the residents, and finally a quick installation that allowed us to put the concrete path to use before the beginning of the school year.”
Rather than opting for a traditional lighting system involving heavy civil works, the desire here was to cause as little trauma as possible on the path by turning to autonomous lighting. With its solar street lamps made in southwest France, which can be installed in a few minutes on any type of ground without damaging the existing structure, Sunna Design appeared as the ideal partner for this project.
The project was coordinated by Occirep, Sunna Design‘s local representative.
In Blanquefort, on the site of the former Ford factory, HDF Energy, a pioneer in hydrogen technologies, has unveiled the world’s first factory producing fuel cells with a capacity greater than one megawatt. Sunna Design has provided autonomous solar lighting solutions to complement this landmark industrial achievement, further supporting the energy transition efforts. This […]
In Bordeaux, the Pont Saint-Jean is stepping into a new era with a tailor-made solar lighting solution by Sunna Design. This flagship project, part of the ambitious Euratlantique development program, embodies the blend of sustainable innovation and architectural heritage preservation. The solar lighting installed provides a contemporary illumination that highlights the bridge’s design while […]
In Spain’s Basque Country, a new bike path now connects several towns, making eco-friendly transportation easier and more accessible. However, once night falls, the lack of lighting limits its use and increases the risk for cyclists. Installing a wired lighting network would have required major construction work on an already paved surface—leading to high […]
