Abstract

The analytical, numerical or hypothetical modeling of a system goes easy when the system could possibly be described by means of mathematical equations. Unfortunately, there were no such equations exist for solar street lighting in the literature. We took the endeavor to construct the equations that might help to describe and calculate the exact amount of components when it comes as a matter of solar street light design. These equations are very first of its kind. We had checked and justified the validity of the equations for real world data. They were amazingly fit and showed the expected results.

Keywords
