Clear Blue Technologies International Inc. (TSXV: CBLU) (FRANKFURT:
OYA), partnered with Rukun Al Yaqeen International, located in
Oman, to provide Illumient Smart Off-Grid Solar Lighting for two
regional airports in Oman, belonging to Petroleum Development Oman
(PDO) and one new housing development between 2018-2020. These
projects involved a total of almost 900 Illumient Smart Off-Grid
Lighting systems with Illumience Energy-as-a-Service remote
monitoring, control and management. With all three projects, Clear
Blue has supplied over $1.5 million USD, with gross margins in line
with what the Company has historically reported, in Illumient Smart
Off-Grid Solar Lighting to the PDO for cost-efficient, reliable and
expertly managed lighting for the safety and security of its
airports and residential developments.
When it comes to developing airports, it is critical that they
are both lit well for safety and security, but also that they are
developed with costs in mind. For more remote and spread-out areas,
solar lighting makes the most sense to meet these requirements.
When it comes to ensuring reliability, control and remote
management of these devices, while getting the longest life and
brightest light possible, Smart Off-Grid solutions are
critical.
“The main focus for lighting of the airports’ exterior perimeter
fencing was economic practicality and remote monitoring. These
projects required a solution that was both cost-effective to
implement and maintain, while providing advanced control and energy
management remotely,” says Raya Al Mahruqi, Head of Products &
Solutions at Rukun Al Yaqeen International. “Clear Blue was able to
deliver on both of these requirements with the lowest cost solution
and the Illumience energy monitoring, management and control
platform. We were thrilled with the results and continue to work
with Clear Blue on more projects.”
The first of the projects for PDO was at the Fahud Airport,
which services the town and petroleum facility of Fahud in Oman.
The airport is in the desert, 3 kilometres northwest of the town.
Although electrical infrastructure exists, it was more
cost-effective to install solar lighting for the lighting of the
exterior perimeter than to extend costly infrastructure to these
borders. The reliability of Illumient Smart Off-Grid lighting and
Clear Blue’s Energy-as-a-Service ensured that lights could be
monitored and controlled remotely for added reliability and peace
of mind. This project was completed in 2018 and involved 228
Illumient Smart Off-Grid Solar Lights.
Continuing on the success of the Fahud installations, the next
project was at the Marmul & Qarn Alm Airport for a similar
installation. Marmul is an airport serving the Petroleum
Development Oman operations at the Marmul heavy oil field in Oman.
Again, the need for strong reliability, remote monitoring and
off-grid power were critical factors in deciding on Clear Blue as
the chosen technology supplier.
The most recent project focused on the use of Illumient Smart
Off-Grid solar street lights to illuminate a new residential
housing development in Oman. As part of this development Clear Blue
supplied Illumient for a cost-effective solution that was easy to
install and maintain. The solution fit in well with the aesthetic
of the development, adding reliable lighting with a modern,
sophisticated look.
The projects were quite successful and there are plans to
complete more in the country in the coming years. The success of
Illumient has shown the value of Smart Off-Grid lighting as a
pivotal solution for reducing costs and maintenance. Together with
Rakun Al Yaqeen, Clear Blue’s Illumient solar lights are proving
that using Smart Off-Grid lighting is the best choice for reducing
total cost of ownership (TCO), while ensuring the highest
reliability for situations where reliable lighting is critical for
safety and security. Whether it is for perimeter security or
blending in with a beautiful new housing development, Illumient is
providing Smart Off-Grid solar lighting to meet a variety of
lighting needs in Oman.
“Clear Blue and the Illumient brand of Smart Off-Grid lighting
are interested in working with international developers on new
smart, energy efficient building sites to provide greater
reliability and cost-effective solutions for lighting,” Miriam
Tuerk, CEO of Clear Blue remarks. “Whether infrastructure is
unavailable or just not sufficient to support perimeter lighting,
Smart Off-Grid Solar lighting is the most effective solution. When
it comes to more remote or extended areas, the ability to monitor
and control power and lighting functions with Clear Blue’s
Energy-as-a-Service and the Illumience platform really make the
clear difference and provide a strong ROI for customers.”
Whether updates to existing sites or development of new sites,
Illumient Smart off-Grid lighting has proven its value and
reliability through these projects. With a strong and capable
partner in RAY International, Clear Blue’s Illumient is poised for
further success in Oman. When looking for long-lasting, remotely
controlled, easily manageable and cost-effective solutions for
lighting its airports and residential development, PDO’s choice was
clearly solar and Clear Blue’s Illumient Smart Off-Grid solar
lighting.
