]]> The government of Kiribati placed an order with Orion Solar for a lighting system for Bonriki International Airport on the 1st of May.  Orion handed over the complete system including runway, threshold, taxiway and apron lighting on June 21st, making this one of the fastest implementations of an airport lighting project in the world. The picture above shows a USAF C-17 transport making use of the new lights at Bonriki in July.

Orion is the regional distributor for Carmanah Technologies,  world leaders in self-contained airport lighting able to withstand the harshest conditions and operate independent of electrical infrastructure. As shown by this project, the lighting is easy to install, and requires virtually no maintenance for seven years on average.

Kiribati is now served reliably by two international carriers and local operators can plan for departure from outer islands closer to last light knowing that they are guaranteed a safe arrival at Bonriki.

]]> Moreton Shire Council have been a customer of Orion Solar for a number of years and these pictures show a recent installation at Oakey Flat Road. The photograph at the top is interesting in that it shows the solar light is not far away from the electrical grid in the building behind where on-grid street lights can be seen. Because of the buried services between the building and the location of the solar street light, the cost of extending the grid to this location would have been significant, making the option of solar lighting more cost effective. It shows the importance of taking all costs into account when planning street lighting.

]]> Logan City Council continued to install solar powered lighting solutions sourced from Orion Solar during 2015. These pictures show the pathways at Ewing Park in Woodbridge.

Solar power allows for the installation of public lighting where a reticulated supply is costly or unavailable. Solar lighting also means uninterrupted operation in the event of a power failure, elimination of electricity costs and a reduction in Council’s carbon footprint.

In 2014, Orion supplied solar powered lighting for a Sepak Takraw (kick volleyball) court at Bellevue Park, Park Ridge, Logan. Previous projects included street lighting for country intersections.

]]> For many years, there has been a dangerous intersection where the public road crosses a Dampier Salt haul road in WA. Following discussions with Carnarvon Shire and Main Roads WA, Dampier Salt installed  a railway crossing style warning system which flashes lights when haul trucks approach the intersection. To implement the solution, Dampier Salt called upon Orion Solar to supply a pair of R247C Flashing Beacons, activated by remote under-road sensors.
