Solar energy is now being harnessed in a number of forms in order to make optimum utilization of the renewable sources of energy. This is mainly being done to save the non renewable sources of energy so that sustainable usage of energy sources can be put into practice. Among all the different types of renewable sources of energy, solar energy is the cleanest and the one which requires least investment. Wind energy and tidal energy as well as geothermal energy are all important sources, but they have not been able to deliver as good as solar energy.
Solar energy is mostly captured in Solar Panels which are made up of a number of photovoltaic cells. These cells capture the sun’s energy in the form of heat and light and then convert it into direct electricity or direct current. A lot of this direct current is used in many appliances but most of them, cannot be used on electrical appliances used in homes and commercial offices. This is because such equipment uses the alternating current and so we need Solar Inverters to convert this direct current.
Solar Garden Lights are also one very upcoming items of garden décor. They are now being increasingly used in many places. Earlier their use was restricted due to their inferior quality, but now people have started using them again because advanced technology in manufacturing ensures that the quality of these products is as per norms and regulations.
Governments around the world have started lying down emphasis on being a greener country in order to be environmentally sustainable. In the third world countries this has been a welcome respite as many countries such as India, Haiti and Nairobi have started using Solar Street Lights in the streets now.
Solar Street Lights are more preferred by the people because they can dramatically reduce the electricity burden of the country and help to save on the finances. Furthermore, they prevent the emissions of green house gases. They can be used in abundance in many places and not increase or affect the economy in any way. Hence, there is now a gradual shift in the people using solar street lights.

There are many benefits of installing solar lights. Some of them are:
1. They do not need to be wired electrically. Since they work on the principle of utilizing the sun’s energy, there are no hassles and you need not make any prior investments on the same.

2.  Set up is very quick and you can either call a technician for the same or refer to the manual for setting it up.

3. It is very cheap and cost-effective. Even the initial investment of installing these lights is not much.

4. Well fixed street lights can provide years of cheap and effective illumination for years to come, so you need to install them in the right way.

5. They hardly go bad; hence, you do not need to worry about them

6. There is also a lot of variety of solar street lights available which makes it easy for the people to choose any kind of light according to their needs.
