ADB Airfield Solutions' Solar LED Runway Guard Light Powered by Carmanah Wins Future Airport Award for ADB Airfield Solutions


Victoria, British Columbia CANADA, Nov 08, 2011 (Filing Services Canada via COMTEX) -- Carmanah Technologies Corporation.

In another aviation lighting industry first, the LED Solar Runway Guard Light, created by Carmanah Technologies Corp, together with ADB Airfield Solutions has been recognized as the Airport Technology of the Year by the Future Airport, a publication from Global Trade Media International. The award was based on a panel of experts from the aviation industry, that put forward a recommended short list of products they felt made the most difference in 2011. The panel included people from airport design, construction, airline management, air traffic control and route development. The panel's short list of products was then voted on by the readers of Future Airport and www.airport-technology.com to determine the Airport Technology of the Year winner. 

In the award announcement, Future Airport praises the ADB LED Solar Runway Guard Light powered by Carmanah, for the energy efficient, long lasting, and low maintenance nature of the solar powered LED light. The judges acknowledge that new solar powered aviation systems such as the Solar Runway Guard Light, not only help reduce an airport's carbon emissions, but are an excellent choice for airfields in remote locations or where access to grid power could be difficult or expensive. The combination of cost efficiency together with significant carbon emission reductions earned this product the Airport Technology of the Year award.

Carmanah Technologies CEO, Bruce Cousins stated, "The LED Solar Runway Guard Light was a joint development project between Carmanah and ADB. We are very happy to see the product be recognized with this award from Future Airports as it reaffirms the capabilities and applicability of solar powered aviation lights for modern airfields everywhere."
