1. Using Solar LED Street Lamps
As part of its energy conservation promotion in response to recent power supply
conditions in Japan, ZEON North has introduced street lamps that use LED lights
powered by stored solar energy, installing the lights in front of a gas station ownedby the company. Solar LED street lights are independently energy-sourced, so there
is no need for construction to install commercial power supplies nor is there anylimits on where the lights can be installed. The street lights will continue to function
