Harnessing Solar Energy
The sun showers the earth with colossal amounts of energy daily. If we could harness this entire energy potential, it would meet the global energy needs of approximately eight years every day. At EKZ online shop, we'll show you how you can easily harness solar energy for your benefit.
Sustainable Lighting with Solar Module
Do you enjoy balmy summer nights on your balcony or in your own garden? Enhance your experience with our mood-setting lighting. Thanks to the integrated solar modules, our lights and lanterns can operate independently of a power outlet. They charge themselves during the day using sunlight and create a beautiful ambiance in the dark. Our drop lanterns, available in different colors, are particularly handy. They operate entirely on solar power and automatically turn on at dusk and off at dawn thanks to the Twilight Switch. They can be hung individually and even in hard-to-reach places, creating a pleasant summer atmosphere. As the drop lanterns can be purchased individually, they can be combined as desired. You can hang several lanterns of the same color or arrange drop lanterns in different colors. A great addition to these are the solar-powered antique lanterns available in our shop. They come in summer patterns and enchant viewers with the resulting shadow pattern. They are available in white, blue, and terra.
Understanding Solar Energy
In recent years, the use of solar energy has come into sharp focus. Large parts of the energy demand can be met by building solar power plants and utilizing this renewable energy source. Many everyday items, especially in the outdoor area, are equipped with solar modules. But how does solar energy work? The sun, a relentless powerhouse, fuses hydrogen nuclei into helium, releasing enormous amounts of energy. A part of this energy reaches our earth in the form of sun rays. It is estimated that the sun delivers daily the amount of energy that would be sufficient for the global daily energy supply of eight years. A tremendous potential that we have increasingly harnessed in recent years by building solar plants.
The sun rays that we feel on our skin are warm. Hence, it is logical to use solar energy with solar heaters for heat generation. But it can also be converted into electrical power, thereby providing a power supply based on renewable energy sources. Solar power plants can supply entire regions with environmentally friendly energy, depending on the capacity of the plant.
