Solar street lights are installed in Xuanqiao Town, Pudong District, Shanghai to make travel more convenient for villagers

As a new type of green energy street light, solar street lights have many advantages such as easy installation, environmental protection and energy saving. This type of street lamp absorbs solar energy to store electrical energy during the day, and releases electrical energy for lighting at night. Compared with traditional electric street lights, solar street lights not only eliminate the need for power lines, but also effectively reduce energy consumption and have the advantage of long-term sustainability.

The two committees of Xiangdai Village led relevant staff to the surrounding building materials markets many times to carefully screen and compare various types of street lights in terms of their advantages, disadvantages, prices, etc., and carefully selected solar street lights with good price and high quality.

During the installation process, the two committees considered the needs and opinions of the villagers from all aspects, carefully designed and arranged the installation location and quantity of street lights, and publicized the relevant information on the use of funds through the villagers’ congress to ensure that the entire project open and transparent.

Not only that, in order to save funds and improve installation efficiency, during the excavation process of the street lamp base, members of the village's two committees, external staff of the two committees and selected students stationed in the village took the lead in participating in the construction, and all 20 tasks were completed in just one day. The layout of base pits. During the concrete pouring process of the base, the construction quality was strictly controlled to ensure that the base was stable and reliable, and to avoid potential safety hazards such as loosening and collapse after the street lamps were installed.

The installation of solar street lights not only solved the actual travel problems of the villagers in Xiangdai Village, but also demonstrated the pragmatism and thoughtfulness of the village's two committees. Under limited financial conditions and based on the actual situation of the village, they actively searched for feasible solutions and gave full play to their subjective initiative of "I do practical things for the villagers".
