Solar Lights as The Ideal Solution to Lighting Up the Industry – Food for Thought
- LUMENA LIGHTS-
The UK hospitality sector, valued at approximately £ 144 billion in revenue in 2024, actively faces pressure from high energy costs. Solar lighting offers a practical route to reduce energy spend, lower carbon emissions, and enhance guest satisfaction. As the UK commits to its 2050 net-zero goal, visible and lowdisruption measures like solar-powered lighting for entrances, car parks, pathways, terraces, pub gardens and signage not only cut costs but also demonstrate sustainability in action.
Solar lighting should be considered as the best way forward in the hospitality industry. Not only is solar lighting considered a more‘ green’ and sustainable approach to lighting up your space, which, over just a few months, pays for itself. Solar lighting is also considered wildlife-friendly, with some Lumena designs offering minimal light pollution. More than half of our designs also offer a timer and dimming sequence to reduce lighting levels in the early hours.
Lumena Lights offers a variety of traditional and contemporary lighting designs to fit all aesthetics. Some examples in our Pro Solar Lighting range: the Radiata Edisol [ fig. 1 ], a perfect traditional look with sustainably sourced Radiata Pine timber, making for the ideal addition to any venue.
If you’ re looking for a solar signage option, Signa [ fig. 2 ] is suitable for graphics up to 1m in width and offers functionality control with the included remote. Alternatively, you can uplight signage, foliage or enhance other features with our Heliosol Floodlight Series [ fig. 3 ]. Three output levels of 200W, 300W, and 400W, Heliosol can be surface, pole, or spike mounted and can illuminate up to 20 + hours. Equipped with a memory function, this light will remember the last settings applied, ensuring consistent illumination day in and day out.
If you want to improve safety and visibility in the runup to your building, our Eccentrica [ see overleaf ] may be the perfect solution. With minimal upwards light and low light pollution, this contemporary design is a perfect choice for both rural and urban settings.
Solar lighting benefits both hospitality businesses and the public they serve. For venues, it cuts costs, reduces carbon, and supports net-zero goals. It requires little maintenance, and there is minimal disruption during installation. For guests, it creates safer, more welcoming spaces- illuminating gardens, paths, and entrances with clean, reliable light without overpowering glare. It’ s a visible commitment to comfort, care, and a brighter, more sustainable future for all.
Choose solar, choose Lumena Lights. Quality that is guaranteed.
