Conflow Power Group closed a $90 million deal, granting iLamp California exclusive rights to deploy smart, solar-powered streetlights in California.
This groundbreaking agreement grants iLamp California full and exclusive territorial rights for the iLamp ecosystem, including all current and future applications, for the State of California.
California, known for having one of the largest transportation budgets in the country, presents a unique opportunity due to its robust solar incentives, tax credits, and funding from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.
The state also faces increasing crime rates and rising pedestrian and road fatalities, making iLamp’s technology the perfect solution to address these growing concerns.
iLamp California will serve as the gateway to smart city infrastructure throughout the state, providing much-needed road safety, crime reduction, and energy efficiency.
iLamp’s solar-powered streetlight system offers a scalable solution to municipalities, commercial developers, and utility companies, combining real-time data applications, advanced safety features, and energy independence.
Beyond lighting, iLamp systems support an array of sensors and technologies offering features including onboard air, wildfire, earthquake, gas leak, wildfire, gunshot and smoke detection,onboard communications, along with support for a wide variety of third party modules and software —transforming traditional street lighting into a multifunctional smart city engine.
Founders of LCS7: Excited About California’s Potential
The acquisition of iLamp California was spearheaded by LCS7, a merchant banking group with deep expertise in the lighting, energy, and alternative energy sectors. Speaking on the acquisition, the founders of LCS7 stated:
"We are excited about the opportunities that are evident in California for the iLamp ecosystem, and with our decades of experience in the lighting, energy, and alternative energy sectors, we anticipate implementing iLamp solutions that enhance property values, aid in decreasing crime, and ultimately create stand-alone power all over the state of California."
Innovative Licensing and Local Impact
As part of the license agreement, iLamp California will pilot cutting-edge tools and services including smart, AI driven lead generation and automated, dynamic document building and management systems. The region will benefit from dedicated supply lines, including an initial 5,000 lamps per month. The localized approach will promote economic growth by creating jobs in manufacturing, installation, and streetlight management. iLamp Microfactories can be established to produce high-mix, low-volume streetlamps tailored to the specific environmental and community needs throughout California.
In these ways, iLamp acts not only as a lighting solution but as an economic driver, supporting sub-licensing opportunities across diverse sectors, including military bases, airports, municipalities, sports venues, and industrial zones, dedicated pages for all sub-licensable rights categories as well as over 600 distinct Californian cities, regions and counties are available on iLampCalifornia.com.
