• Solar powered road lighting project shows up in UAE

  • Solar_streetlight.jpgThe UAE has now added a shade of green to its streets with its new solar powered road lighting project. The project extending to 11km has been set up by the Ministry of Public Works at the Wadi Sidr Area. The system makes no use of low or high tension electricity lines and is a green as a leaf. Helping reduce carbon emissions substantially, the solar powered system also boasts low maintenance costs and is a step towards achieving sustainability. All in all, this touch of green added to the streets of the Wadi Sidr Area is an effort worth a load of applauds, and we sincerely hope the initiative is spread elsewhere, helping make cities environment friendly.
