The Israel Electric Corporation (IEC) is set to evaluate a cutting-edge autonomous solar lighting system developed by iLamp Israel. This initiative marks the first time the technology will be operational at an IEC facility. The pilot aims to test the system’s lighting efficacy, reliability, and its resilience in coastal environmental conditions, with outcomes guiding decisions on whether broader applications should be considered.
iLamp’s innovative system integrates multiple functions into a single lighting pole. Each unit is equipped with LED lighting, a 360-degree solar array, and battery storage, ensuring it can generate and store energy for independent operation without needing a traditional grid connection. Additionally, the platform offers edge-computing capabilities, which allow data from devices attached to the pole to be processed on-site rather than relying solely on centralized systems.
The IEC project will involve close monitoring of the system against specified technical and operational benchmarks. The data collected will be crucial for evaluating the performance of the technology in real-world scenarios. Anna Finkelstein, responsible for Business Development at iLamp Israel, emphasized that the pilot presents a valuable opportunity to gather performance data in a challenging environment.
Albert Taubi, Director of iLamp Israel, views the IEC’s approval as a significant step towards introducing autonomous solar solutions to major operators. The immediate goal remains the successful installation and thorough evaluation of the system’s performance. It is important to note that this pilot does not equate to an endorsement for widespread deployment; any future expansion will require a separate assessment by IEC, contingent upon the pilot’s results.
iLamp Israel Ltd., which holds the exclusive license for the iLamp platform in Israel, developed this technology in partnership with Conflow Power Group Ltd., a company based in the United Kingdom. For those interested in more details, iLamp Israel’s website provides additional information, and Anna Finkelstein can be contacted directly for inquiries.
