BEAVERTON, ORE.—Urban Solar announced that all of its solar powered LED systems are now UL Listed. This listing covers all transit-related lighting products as well as all commercial solar LED lighting systems for applications including pathways, roadways, parking lots, and general illumination.

Underwriters Laboratories (UL) is a global independent safety science company with more than a century of experience testing, reviewing, and innovating safety solutions to help customers make informed decisions before purchasing a wide range of technology products.
