Illumient, the smart off-grid lighting company, today announced a new solar-only product line with a wide choice of options to enable customers to buy street and pathway lighting that matches their specific needs. The new product line is based on the StressCrete Americana series of spun concrete poles with many different configurations.

The new product line enables customers to choose from:

•   Round, Square or Hexagonal spun concrete poles
•   Variety of pole colors in etched or polished finishes with coating choices of acrylic, non-acrylic or anti-graffiti
•   Wide choice of luminaires from leading vendors StressCrete/King Luminaire, GE, LED Roadway and Leotek
•   Single solar and dual solar configurations
•   Variety of decorative arms

“Illumient was the first company to combine green energy lighting with advanced cloud-based software to usher in a new era of highly reliable off-grid lighting,” said Miriam Tuerk, COO of parent company Clear Blue Technologies. “In response to strong market demand we have now introduced a very cost-effective solar-only product line to complement our existing hybrid wind and solar-powered lights. The new product line offers a wide ranges of choices and options that are both beautiful and functional and enables customers to order lights that match their specifications.”

“We are very pleased that Illumient has expanded their product line with StressCrete’s Americana series of spun concrete poles,” said Michael Schwenger Jr., Executive Vice President of StressCrete. “We are seeing a high degree of interest in moving to off-grid lighting systems, and Illumient’s solution provides excellent capabilities in terms of remote monitoring and control and high reliability.”
