Chengdu, located in Southwest China, is a city with complex urban layouts and diverse terrains, from downtown parks to suburban industrial zones. Traditional wired grid power presented multiple challenges:
✅ Cabling coordination difficulties — Installing wired electricity required lengthy approvals with property managers and municipal authorities, often delaying security monitoring deployment.
✅ Unreliable grid performance — Chengdu’s subtropical monsoon climate brings long rainy seasons, heavy fog, and humid winters. Frequent outages disrupted surveillance data, undermining 24/7 safety monitoring.
✅ High maintenance costs — Remote and scattered camera locations meant costly site visits. Cable faults required technicians to cross complex landscapes, making repairs time-consuming, risky, and expensive.
These challenges made it clear that the city needed a solar-powered CCTV system that could provide continuous, off-grid operation without relying on unstable municipal infrastructure.
In August 2025, a 300W 200AH solar power kit was deployed to support high-load surveillance cameras across multiple locations in Chengdu.
✅ High-efficiency 300W solar panels coated with anti-fog and anti-corrosion layers ensure reliable power generation in humid and rainy conditions.
✅ Daily output meets the demands of HD security cameras, enabling uninterrupted solar surveillance system operations.
✅ A 200AH LiFePO4 storage battery provides extended backup during foggy winters and consecutive rainy days.
✅ Designed for high-load scenarios such as smart video analytics and real-time alerts, the battery guarantees data continuity and timely incident warnings.
✅ An advanced MPPT controller monitors solar input, battery capacity, and device loads in real time.
✅ Remote monitoring allows operators to check power status via mobile devices, receive automated alerts, and significantly reduce on-site inspections.
The integrated solar panel and battery system achieved zero downtime, ensuring complete data collection and quick incident response.
The IP66-rated system, featuring anti-fog, anti-corrosion, and waterproof protection, remains operational during Chengdu’s heavy rainfall and foggy winters.
✅ Eliminated wiring and grid dependency lowered infrastructure costs.
✅ Smart operations cut routine maintenance trips, reducing annual O&M costs by over 30%.
The combination of solar generation, large-capacity storage, and smart control redefines energy security for urban and rural surveillance systems.
This deployment can be scaled to:
✅ Government security projects in Western China
✅ Industrial parks with limited grid access
✅ Rural surveillance deployments requiring wireless solar CCTV systems
✅ Construction sites and outdoor safety monitoring using off-grid solar power kits
By replacing traditional grid power, the project reduced dependence on fossil fuels and supported Chengdu’s vision of green security development.
1. What is the difference between solar CCTV and wired CCTV?
Solar-powered CCTV systems operate independently with solar panels and batteries, while wired CCTV relies on grid power and extensive cabling.
2. Does solar CCTV work at night or during foggy days?
Yes. With a 200AH LiFePO4 battery, the system provides continuous power for night operations and multiple rainy days.
3. How to install a solar CCTV kit in urban environments?
Most are plug and play solar CCTV systems with modular panels, batteries, and controllers, reducing installation time and approvals.
4. What battery is best for solar surveillance systems?
LiFePO4 batteries are recommended due to long cycle life, safety, and adaptability to outdoor climates.
5. What is the cost advantage of solar CCTV compared to grid-powered systems?
By eliminating long-distance cabling and reducing maintenance trips, solar power kits cut lifecycle costs by 30–40%, delivering higher ROI.
6. How to choose a solar power kit for outdoor surveillance?
Consider camera load, storage capacity, and weather patterns. For Chengdu, a 300W solar panel + 200AH battery setup provided reliable all-weather performance.
