Solar traffic lights are fitted with the latest technology in electronics. They are based on photovoltaic or PV for short. A solar panel which is located on the top of the pole converts sunlight into electrical power. A solar charger regulates the voltage coming out of the solar panel.

LEDs are small, but it can produce a significant amount of light. Solar powered traffic lights and solar traffic signs are becoming more and more widespread around the world because they are portable, easily deployable, energy efficient, good for the environment and require minimum maintenance.
