The “greenness” of solar lights stems from the fact that they use absolutely no electricity and so burn no fossil fuels. All of their energy needs are provided by what’s inside them, so if you are replacing electric lights with these then you are reducing your ecological “footprint”.

Although the costs of buying these units are slightly more than standard lights, the absence of any running costs will, of course, mean that you will end up saving money in the long run.

Finally, the ease of installation (either fixing to a wall or post using a mounting unit or driving a stake into the ground) makes them attractive when compared to the wiring efforts required for electric lights. When you add to this that the only maintenance required is the occasional wipe with a cloth and the fact that most of them switch themselves on, then they are doubly-attractive. Just make sure that your lights are well secured or they can be disturbed by strong winds….or they can be stolen easily.
