This research plans the power capacities of the obstacle lighting on the power transmission towers, which are located in the areas where the utility cannot reach. The obstacle lighting is formed by light emitting diodes (LEDs), which are powered mainly by solar cells and subordinately by rechargeable batteries. The solar cells charge the batteries during the sunny daytime with plenty sunlight. When the sunlight is insufficient and the obstacle lamp is turned on, batteries and solar cells supply the obstacle lighting simultaneously. The power capacities of the solar cells and batteries are designated to keep the obstacle lighting system uninterruptible either under the drastic weather variation or a long period of insufficient sunlight. Under the specified operation rules of the obstacle lighting, a more economical and precise method is proposed for planning the power capacities of solar cells and batteries based on the weather data from Central Weather Bureau in recent 6 years following. The power planning method is implemented in the areas of Kaohsiung, Chiayi and Ali mountain to demonstrate the feasibility and the accuracy in reality.
