Carmanah's Evergen solar engine is a compact, solar-powered energy source that uses the sun's energy to power outdoor area lighting applications.
All components (including photovoltaic modules, rechargeable batteries, sensors and electronics) are integrated within a compact and durable pole-mounted design.
With no trenching or cabling required, the Evergen solar engine can be installed in minutes, with minimal technical expertise, at a fraction of the cost of a hard-wired system.
According to Alan Ruud, founder and president of Beta Lighting's parent company Ruud Lighting, Carmanah's solar technology is the perfect complement to BetaLED lighting technology: "When combined with Carmanah's powerful Evergen solar engine, an LED lighting solution can provide considerable benefits over traditional lighting alternatives - especially in remote applications".
See the Evergen solar engine with the new BetaLED light fixture at Lightfair International 2008 in Las Vegas (May 28-30) (Carmanah booth #1165).
