Laupahoehoe High School
Laupahoehoe High School is the fifteenth school to receive a Sun Power for Schools photovoltaic system. A photovoltaic area lighting system was installed alongside the school’s main entrance on February 23, 2001.
The pole-mounted system consists of solar panels, an enclosure that houses batteries and a solar lighting controller, and luminaires. The solar panels charge the batteries with DC electricity during the day and the batteries power the luminaires at night. The solar lighting controller regulates battery charging/discharging and controls lighting operation.
