This is an interview from after the Broly movie was launched and is available in Kanzenshu.
Then, since there are such brutal battles playing out, please tell us some details about the fight scenes.
We switched up the scenery for the fights in the second half; the magma scene in particular was added because if the background had remained as never-ending white ice, it would be hard to see the effects on blasts. The scenery needs to be darker in scenes with a lot of blast attacks. Furthermore, if the conditions of the battle stay the same the whole time, the audience will lose interest, so I felt it needed to be changed up somehow. So we did things like have magma spurt out due to the ferocity of their fight, and also had them end up in another dimension at one point. Then at the climax, we created the ideal conditions to see light-based attacks when Shenlong appeared, making the sky turn pitch black. I actually imagined including scenes of them fighting in space, and to make an homage to Broli disappearing into the sun by having them fight on the sun's surface, or having them fight inside the Earth itself, but in the end there just wasn't enough runtime! (laughs) Also, I made it my goal to show off Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan in the coolest way possible. I wanted to bestow it with the most befitting visuals and power. The transformation sequence was very carefully constructed as well, and I encourage you all to try imitating it yourselves!
This should confirm it that ki is light speed and the minimum speed of ki should be equal to light and can be even higher when powered up depending on the user.
Ki has been refered to as one's light multiple times in the series.
And has shown lightspeed feats such as as early as Master Roshi's moon buster and Popo's faster than lightning statements.
