The rise of solar energy is leading to a shift in the way we power lighting across the world. As the world leader in lighting, we're committed to innovations of all kinds — especially when they reduce the impact on the environment as energy efficiency battles climate change by reducing energy usage. Clean energy battles climate change by decarbonizing the energy that is used. It's why we're leading the way in advancing solar-powered lights, helping you meet your sustainability goals and bring light to communities by harnessing the power of the sunlight and at the same time encouraging the use of renewable energy. One such innovation from Signify are the solar and hybrid-solar streetlights that reduce carbon emissions while leveraging the most cost-efficient energy source around: the sun. To add to that infrastructure projects such as connected street lighting create on local jobs benefit for the local economy, help reduce carbon and save energy. The benefits are not limited to just positive impact on the environment.
