Solar Power Shingles are photovoltaic devices, which transform solar power – light – radiation directly into electricity.
They cover the roof as any other roof shingles, yet they introduce additional functionality.
After the introduction of solar roof shingles we could say, that our roof could additionally work for us in producing renewable electricity and add some nice profit to our monthly budget, by offsetting energy bill. Roofs of our buildings are keeping quite low profiles or in other words, in most cases they are not used for any other purpose as is protection of the buildings themselves. Combined surface of all roofs of all buildings is so vast, that we could get absolutely all electricity we need for modern life from applying solar roof shingles.
Yes, it is so very simple and straightforward, however, not many politicians know that solar power shingles even exist, and that is very sad.
Solar roofing could be one of the most elegant solutions in solving huge problems of global warming and climate changes. Absolutely all electricity for our needs could be produced by renewable solar power by use of our roofs or additionally by use of solar panels.
The knowledge of existence and powerful characteristics of roof shingles and solar panels should be loudly introduced and practically presented to all politicians, business managers and government employees in charge of any planning or ordering, as well as to all citizens by wide and loud media campaign, organized and managed by the government.
That is at least, what public money could have done for the environmentally friendly future of its tax payers.
