In Santa Eugenia, a municipality of Majorca in the Balearic Islands, the lack of lighting on Camí de s’Hostalet has made night-time travel on this road challenging. After considering various types of streetlights, the local government selected solar solutions from Sunna Design for their quality, performance, and warranties.
Santa Eugenia – ILES BALÉARES
Camí de s’Hostalet, a 5-meter-wide road in Majorca, had no lighting. The municipality implemented an exterior lighting system to enhance its users’ safety and comfort. Solar solutions emerged as the best option. Installing 19 of Sunna Design’s iSSL Maxi Road streetlights turned out to be more cost-effective than a conventional lighting network, thanks to eliminating costs related to electrical network connections (trenching, cabling, connection, and electrical panel)
Sunna Design’s solar solutions offer a 26% cost saving compared to conventional lighting systems, 75% less installation time, and an electricity bill of $0.
The Santa Eugenia town hall quickly favored Sunna Design’s solar solutions over seemingly cheaper but less effective and reliable products. Sunna Design’s streetlights come with a 6-year warranty and long-term reliability (lasting over 10 years), attributable to their robustness and the proprietary technology of a leading company in solar public lighting.
Sunna Design provides an equivalent or superior lighting level and excellent uniformity (over 0.4) for the same road surface area with fewer streetlights. The iSSL Maxi Road luminaires can provide outstanding road lighting at a distance of 34 meters apart.
With its factory located in Blanquefort, France, within the company itself, Sunna Design offers exceptional responsiveness to all its clients, especially neighboring Spain. Sunna Design received the order from the Santa Eugenia town hall in mid-April, and the manufacturing and delivery of the 19 iSSL Maxi Road streetlights were completed by early June, just six weeks later.
The quality and reliability of its solutions, the proximity of the factory, and the short manufacturing times of its streetlights make Sunna Design an ideal partner for Spain’s solar lighting projects.
