Discover Solar Energy

Solar energy is a tried and tested power source that is already being used around the world for numerous commercial, industrial, government and domestic applications. It is powering water pumps in African villages, weather stations in the Antarctic and satellites in space!

It works by transforming the energy from the sun into a reusable form of electricity, a process known as Photovoltaic (or PV for short). Your Solar panel acts as a collecting tray, helping you catch the sun’s rays. The bigger the panel, the more energy you can collect. The energy collected is stored for your future use in a battery.

Sometimes you collect more energy than you actually need so with larger panels a voltage regulator should be fitted to control the flow of energy and prevent battery damage.

It would be hard to find a more environmentally friendly power supply. Clean and green, solar power is a renewable, sustainable and non-polluting source of energy. It is easy to see the appeal of solar power for domestic use. Low maintenance and long lasting, it is a highly cost-effective and reliable energy supply.

If you didn't know, now you know how great Solar is!

Some great guys in Sweden have developed a solar powered water filtering device to help provide clean water to third world countries. These folks go by the name of Solvatten, which is "sun water" in Swedish.

Happy New Year!

Solar Arcadia wishes everyone a Happy New Years!

Start this new year right, here are three "Green" New Years Resolution ideas:

1. Plant a tree! Plant one in your backyard or even your community park. You can also buy a service that plants a tree for you in the American Forests.

2. Use re-usable grocery bags. Stop using plastic bags from the grocery store and buy an eco-friendly shopping bag instead.

3. Purchase Solar Arcadia products and help make a difference. (All products sold on Solar Arcadia have 2% that is given back to renewable energy research)


The bottom line is...

Have a Great New Years and try to do something "Green" this year.
