    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylighting_(architecture)

    Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has developed a new alternative to skylights called hybrid solar lighting. This design uses a roof-mounted light collector, large-diameter optical fiber, and modified efficient fluorescent lighting fixtures that have transparent rods connected to the optical fiber cables. Essentially no electricity is needed ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_mounting_system

    PV panels mounted on roof Workers install residential rooftop solar panels. The solar array of a PV system can be mounted on rooftops, generally with a few inches gap and parallel to the surface of the roof. If the rooftop is horizontal, the array is mounted with each panel aligned at an angle.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applications_of_photovoltaics

    Solar street lights raised light sources which are powered by photovoltaic panels generally mounted on the lighting structure. The solar array of such off-grid PV system charges a rechargeable battery, which powers a fluorescent or LED lamp during the night. Solar street lights are stand-alone power systems, and have the advantage of savings on ...

    Thin film solar is light weight at 7–10 ounces per square foot. Thin film solar panels last 10–20 years [24] but have a quicker ROI than traditional solar panels, the metal roofs last 40–70 years before replacement compared to 12–20 years for an asphalt shingle roof. [25] [26]

  6. Solar panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

    Solar array mounted on a rooftop. A solar panel is a device that converts sunlight into electricity by using photovoltaic (PV) cells. PV cells are made of materials that produce excited electrons when exposed to light.

  7. Skylight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skylight

    Solar tubes, sun tunnels, or tubular skylights consist of a roof-mounted fixed unit skylight element, condensing sunlight, distributed by a light conveying optic conduit to a light diffusing element. [3] Being small in diameter, they can be used for daylighting smaller spaces such as hallways, and bounce light in darker corners of spaces. TDDs ...
