Single & Triple-Mounted All-in-one Pedestrian Walkway Lighting

Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario

Clear Blue delivered Smart Off-Grid lighting for Niagara-on-the-Lake’s historic Queenston waterfront, including one triple-mounted Senti™ cluster at the main lookout and a series of single-pole Sentis that trace the river’s edge.

How a Triple-Head Solar Fixture Is Even Possible

Traditional solar-all-in-ones have fixed solar panels that need to be pointed south, requiring the light to be facing north. This severely limits the performance of systems, causing outages and disrupting lighting uniformity throughout your project. Enter Senti, Clear Blue's revolutionary new luminaires with patented 360° rotatable turret that let each solar panel and fixture move independently. Panels can be angled for maximum sun exposure while the lights aim precisely where illumination is needed. No other solar platform offers this dual-axis freedom, enabling broad, uniform coverage on one pole—without oversizing the array or compromising autonomy.

Why Smart Off-Grid?

Queenston wanted to showcase its scenic riverwalk and improve safety for evening strollers, cyclists, and tourists visiting the nearby Heritage Trail. Running grid power across the shoreline would have meant trenching through sensitive parkland and costly utility extensions. Clear Blue’s solar-powered Senti systems offered a fast, low-impact alternative with:

• 24/7 monitoring, management, and operations by Clear Blue Technologies so your staff don't need to become energy experts to ensure maximum uptime.
• Architectural flexibility: the triple-head Senti provides wide, uniform coverage at the promenade entrance, while the slim single poles blend into the historic streetscape.
• A dramatic reduction in maintenance visits, advancing Niagara-on-the-Lake’s climate-action plan.

Results

Installed ahead of the summer tourist season, the systems now illuminate the riverwalk, public benches, and kayak launch until dawn—without glare into adjacent residences. Local business owners report increased evening foot traffic, and encouraged by the success, Niagara-on-the-Lake is evaluating additional Smart Off-Grid lights for nearby parkettes and trailheads.
