No Window in Your Office?


Oak Ridge Laboratory in Tennessee has developed a solar lighting technology that pipes sunlight into a building using fiber optics. This has huge potential advantages over powering artificial lights with solar energy because, as anyone with a corner office will tell you, there just isn’t a substitute for the quality of natural light. With a hybrid solar lighting system there is an additional energy savings that, according to the article, will make systems extremely cost effective over time.

Systems and installation are available now from Sunlight-Direct but prices are not posted on their site.
