After being named a winner of the Transit Tech Lab challenge, Urban Solar partnered with the NYC DOT to pilot battery-powered e-paper displays in Queens and Manhattan. These displays provide real-time information without relying on power hookups, costly infrastructure or solar-viable sites.

Public transit plays a vital role in our daily lives and keeping our cities moving by offering an affordable and convenient way to get around. However, safety concerns ranging from assaults to petty crime pose a risk to passengers and transit staff. 

When it comes to public procurement, most agencies are all too familiar with the headaches. Whether you're outfitting bus stops with solar lighting or upgrading to real-time digital signage, Sourcewell makes purchasing Urban Solar products quicker, easier and more cost-effective.

Urban Solar is proud to manufacture its solar lighting and e-paper display products in the US, meeting Buy America and Build America requirements. Learn how we prioritize domestic sourcing, maintain compliance and continue to innovate.

You wouldn’t skip oil changes, ignore a check engine light, or skip fuelling your car — maintaining your solar-powered systems is no different.
