Solar lighting
When it comes to solar lighting for the home you have
more than one option. You can use light with power generated from solar
panels. However, you can also install windows and skylights to maximize
your natural daylight.
Installing solar panels to generate solar lighting requires a large
initial investment in photovoltaic cells. However, there are tax rebates
if you purchase solar panels. Also, purchasing solar panels can add
to the value of your home.
Solar lighting can also be used with energy-efficient windows and skylights.
Insulated windows and skylights can be placed in your home to maximize
the amount of light you receive. However, the light from the sun will
only benefit you during daylight hours.
