NASA Comes to Michigan for Advanced Lighting System

June 18, 2011

The Johnson Space Center in Houston had a parking lot that needed illumination but was without an electricity supply.  They solved their problem by selecting the EverLast PV/Wind Hybrid Area Lighting System from Jackson-based Full Spectrum Solutions Inc.  The system incorporates a wind turbine generator with photovoltaic solar panels, battery power storage, and integrated smart sensor controls to power an induction light fixture.  The combination can deliver powerful, commercial grade lighting to remote areas that are off the grid.  The U.S. Air Force has selected the induction streetlight fixtures to reduce energy costs at Eglin Air Force Base in Florida.
