Abstract
In order to reduce the significant energy consumption due to public lighting, highly efficient lighting systems using Light Emitting Diode (LED) technology have been implemented. In addition, the integration of photovoltaic solar energy into these lighting systems allows an autonomous electricity supply. This paper is intended mainly to size a photovoltaic LED street lighting system. The electrical characteristics of the different components of the system are determined. With the aid of PVsyst software, a sizing adapted for Algiers city’s meteorology is proposed for several photovoltaic technologies.
