Solar Energy – a safe, clean, eco-friendly and never ending energy resource in the universe

Energy is required in every day of life in the form of power, electricity etc., and one cannot imagine the routine without energy. But unfortunately most of energy what we traditionally use are exhaustive. Hence there in necessity of energy conservation which can be achieved through increased efficiency of energy use and also reduction of energy consumption wherever possible. Solar energy and LED lighting are such technologies which give efficient lighting, with less energy consumption and eco friendly.

What is Solar Energy?

Every day, the sun radiates an enormous amount of energy-called solar energy. It radiates more energy in one second than the world has used since time began. It takes the sun’s energy just a little over eight minutes to travel the 93 million miles to Earth. Solar energy travels at a speed of 186,000 miles per second, the speed of light.

Only a small part of the radiant energy that the sun emits into space ever reaches the Earth, but that is more than enough to supply all our energy needs. Every day enough solar energy reaches the Earth to supply our nation’s energy needs for a year! Solar energy is considered a renewable energy source.

Photovoltaic Electricity

Photovoltaic comes from the words photo meaning light and volt, a measurement of electricity. Photovoltaic cells are called PV cells or solar cells. Solar cells are made up of silicon, the same substance that makes up sand. Silicon is the second most common substance on Earth. Solar cells can supply energy to anything that is powered by batteries or electrical power.

Electricity is produced when sunlight strikes the solar cell, causing the electrons to move around. The action of the electrons starts an electric current. The conversion of sunlight into electricity takes place silently and instantly.

How Solar Lights Work?

During the day when the sun shines the lights’ solar panel absorbs radiation from the sun. A small battery in each light stores this energy that is built up while the sun is out. At night, after a photo sensor no longer detects any sunlight, the LED within the fixture is activated. The light shines as long as there is power in the battery. The batteries are constantly recharged, meaning they will always illuminate when the sun goes down.

Solar street lights

With solar Street lights you can illuminate an outdoor space using only the sun as the energy supplier. After the initial purchase of the lights they are cost free, making them the green choice for Street lighting. There is no electricity required to power them, nor do they require a natural gas connection. With direct sunlight, they provide an entirely sustainable means of illumination that, with a little maintenance, will last you years.

A combination of solar street lights is enough to produce a warm or cool glow on the Street that extends in part to the surrounding landscape.

Maintenance

Perhaps the best attribute of outdoor solar lighting is that it is relatively maintenance free. After its installation, the only things that need to be done to ensure proper working order is infrequent battery replacement and keeping the solar panel clean. With no cables, wires or external power supply to worry about, Solar Street lighting is the maintenance-free and green choice for outdoor illumination. And because solar lighting comes in numerous styles, you can practically custom fit your Street with an assortment of lights that only require direct sunlight for their power.
