Santa Barbara, CA - Jun. 10, 2025- We are excited to announce a multilateral strategic partnership between Dragon Q Energy, Spitzer Lighting and Sixteen5hundred to bring a suite of innovative lighting solutions to market. The collaboration includes combining Dragon Q Energy's cutting-edge battery storage technology, Sixteen5hundred's extensive industry network and technical expertise, and Spitzer Lighting's innovative luminaire designs into all-in-one solar and battery enabled street and commercial lighting solutions.
The initial suite of solutions includes square and round pedestrian-scale poles and bollards, each integrating solar power and energy storage in a sleek, architectural form. These products are designed to meet the region's increasing demand for resilient, grid-independent infrastructure while supporting carbon reduction and energy efficiency goals.
