pedeSOLAR
Solar-powered LED spots for enhanced safety at level crossings
pedeSOLAR is an innovative extension to the pede system, significantly improving the visibility of pedestrian level crossings at night – completely independent of any external power supply. A series of LED lighting elements is integrated directly into the system. The built-in solar LED units are factory-installed and provide self-contained, maintenance-free illumination for up to 240 hours when fully charged. Especially at night or in adverse weather conditions, they can increase visibility to up to 900 metres. This makes pedeSOLAR ideal for unlit or remote level crossings.
Solar-powered LED spots for pedestrian crossings
pedeSOLAR offers a durable and economical solution for improving visibility at level crossings – without the need for cabling or external power supply.
- Up to 240 hours of illumination when fully solar-charged
- Visibility of up to approx. 900 m depending on road and track alignment
- No external power supply required – fully self-contained and maintenance-free
- Factory pre-installed, installation-ready and vandal-resistant
- Ideal for rural, poorly lit or temporary level crossings

pedeSOLAR creates bright, intuitive guidance for pedestrians at level crossings
It delivers clear, additional guidance for cyclists and pedestrians, particularly in school zones in Kaltenkirchen South, Germany. By harnessing solar energy, it helps minimize accident risk in low-light conditions and sustainably enhances traffic safety in an environmentally friendly way.
Visibility solution for level crossings
pedeSOLAR is particularly suitable for level crossings in rural areas, along farm tracks, forestry routes or low-traffic secondary lines where no conventional lighting is available. The solar-powered LED spots significantly improve the visibility of pedestrian crossings and effectively complement existing safety systems, especially at night, in fog or during heavy rain. pedeSOLAR also provides a flexible, immediately deployable solution for temporarily used routes – without the need for additional technical installations.
Technical advantages during installation and operational reliability
The lighting elements integrated into the panel system are fully pre-assembled and require neither ground works nor cabling. This simplifies installation and reduces the risk of failures caused by external interference. The stand-alone lighting units operate reliably even under diffuse light conditions and can bridge extended periods of poor weather. Thanks to the vandal-resistant design, pedeSOLAR provides a permanently reliable solution for operators requiring low-maintenance lighting in exposed locations.
