It’s November! We’ve turned back the clocks and there’s less daylight. As the sun sets earlier, you may notice your lighting is not up to par. This can be a huge safety issue. Let us help! Not only do we have outdoor lighting solutions, but we have lighting options that are 100% off the grid. Learn about these solar powered lights and more in this month’s edition of the Mountain View. We are highlighting the renewable energy market and key manufacturers leading the charge.
