Greenshine New Energy

What Greenshine New Energy does

Greenshine New Energy is a US-based designer and manufacturer of solar outdoor LED lighting systems serving municipalities, commercial enterprises, and government agencies. The company is headquartered in Santa Ana, California (with mailing references to Irvine) and was founded in 1994 as a solar LED lighting corporation. As of January 2026, its assets and operations were acquired by Ample New Energies, with Greenshine continuing as a registered trademark and trade name under the acquirer.

The company's product stack combines monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic panels manufactured via the Czochralski process, deep-cycle gel lead-acid batteries, Cree LED fixtures with high color rendering index, and hot-dipped galvanized powder-coated steel poles rated to withstand Category 3 hurricane winds (up to 145-150 MPH). It sells through eight branded system families (SUPERA, BRIGHTA, LUMINA, PORTA, VOLTA, LITA, CLASSICA, and BOLLARD) plus a Mobile Solar Tower line with Bluetooth-enabled smart control and an All-In-One integrated platform, as well as a portfolio of individual LED fixtures. Greenshine Connect is a proprietary Bluetooth smart controller that allows users to override default sunup-to-sundown profiles. Every system is custom-engineered to local sunlight, temperature, and wind conditions and shipped as a pre-configured turnkey package.

Greenshine operates a sales-led direct go-to-market with US-based lighting experts responding to inbound quote requests within 24 hours; the firm explicitly does not use distributors or resellers. Revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales of complete systems, supplemented by an equipment financing partnership with Balboa Capital that helps municipal and commercial buyers manage upfront cost. Customers are concentrated in the United States across at least nine states (including California, Arizona, Minnesota, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Michigan, Oklahoma, Colorado, and Nevada) and span city governments (e.g., City of Charleston, City of Mammoth Lakes, Bakersfield), commercial developers, schools, HOAs, military facilities, and tribal communities. The company reports thousands of customers and over 30 years of combined team experience in solar lighting.
