Solar street lighting at Centre Hospitalier Guillaume Regnier  

As part of its eco-responsible approach to modernizing its infrastructure, the Centre Hospitalier Guillaume Regnier in Rennes is undertaking a major renovation of its public lighting system in 2022. Aware of today's environmental and economic challenges, the hospital opted for a solar street lighting solution, entrusting this large-scale project to Fonroche Lighting, a leader in the field.

The installation of 80 Fonroche solar streetlights has transformed the accessibility and safety of the hospital's parking lots, roadways and pedestrian walkways, guaranteeing a better experience for patients and visitors, day and night. This initiative is perfectly in line with the center's commitment to reducing its ecological footprint while providing a high-quality public service.

 

Economic and ecological benefits

Fonroche solar streetlights, equipped with LED technology and an autonomous photovoltaic storage system, offer a significant reduction in energy consumption. What's more, this solution makes the facility maintenance-free for a decade, reducing operating costs.

Another significant benefit is the enhancement of the hospital's green image. By opting for clean, renewable energy, the center underlines its commitment to ecological transition and the fight against light pollution, reinforcing its role as a forerunner in the healthcare sector.
