May 28, 2007 - The application of solar energy technology to outdoor lighting systems enables Matrix to design and supply systems for urban and remote areas that lack direct access to conventional power or where it is cost prohibitive.
Such autonomous lighting systems are seen as crucial in the global fight to reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions and to promote energy conservation.
“We are pleased to have the opportunity to demonstrate how Matrix’s products can enable projects, like Bloor West Village, to reduce GHG emissions and strain on the utility grid. This kind of project helps the public recognize that solar energy can be utilized in our everyday lives, and can have a positive impact on the community” said Brian Wilkinson, President of Matrix Energy. The project was a joint venture with Tacel Ltd of Toronto.
Matrix’s solar lighting systems, featuring either Low Pressure Sodium (LPS) or LED streetlights, are highly reliable and maintenance-free. The lens design reduces light pollution while improving light output. The LED fixtures offer standard light output of 1260 lumens yet consumes only 20W of power, and have a life of over 50,000+ hours!!
Matrix Energy continues to offer clean energy solutions to customers in order to increase energy security and to reduce our carbon footprint in a cost effective and practical manner.
