SOLAR ENERGY TO IMPROVE LIVES

The lack of access to electricity, unreliable supply and expensive charges is a major draw back to growth and competitiveness of African economies. Only a minority of Africa’s population has access to even basic electricity supply.  This is mainly because it is too expensive and the community seeks alternative energy to handle critical matters as they are too poor to afford.  Children's learning and home study in the evening is not a priority.  Many families will cook using firewood, charcoal and use kerosine for lighting.

Climate change presents additional challenges to the energy sector which has already been hit hard by high oil prices. More erratic rainfall has severely affected the power generation of hydro power dams in Africa.  The solution is to seek an alternative cheap affordable energy source that serves the community leaving the industrial requirement to be served by the generated electricity energy.

Renewable energy is the best solution to poverty and combat climate change. Solar energy is a radiant light and heat emitted by the sun. It is energy from the sun and without its presence all life on earth would end. It is harnessed using a range of ever-evolving technologies such as solar heating, solar photovoltaic, solar thermal electricity, solar architecture and artificial photosynthesis.


 Solar power in Africa has the potential to provide all of the world's energy.  Declining solar equipment costs have been experienced and it is expected to significantly reduce further making it easier for solar installations and use in Africa. The solar industry is a fast growing job creator in the world. There are more jobs in Kenya created due to use of solar industry; IMPORT, MANUFACTURING, MARKETING, SALES, INSTALLATION, RESEARCH & DEVELOPMENT.  This is pretty much in line with vision 2030 

 

Solar Garden Lights

Greenway Solar Garden lights are designed for decorative lighting in gardens. The heads  contains a solar panel, which faces upward to received the sunlight during the day. It also contains a battery, which the solar panel charges during the day, and a LED light, which is powered by the battery at night and provides light to illuminate the garden.

Now the technology has improved even further. I visited a hotel upcountry; a four star hotel. The gardens are quite beautiful, with lights well spaced and the whole place looked very nicely kept during the day. To my surprise when the night came the place looked even better with very nicely patterned lighting of different colors and shades. The lights automatically switched on when darkness fell. It portrayed a thought through investment with zero lighting bills. The gardens had solar lights, street lights, with nice  pavement lights also the sensor &security lights were solar lit. All that beauty at a zero running cost...impressive.

The garden light come with a stand, which is stuck into the ground to support the head or mountable products that light a pathway.
