There are a lot of benefits to owning solar panels, the least of which is the fact that you're harnessing energy from the sun that would otherwise go to waste. Or at the very least, the sun is doing more than just heating the roof of your home. That's easily the worst part about summer where I live.
I've had home solar panels for over six years now, but there are far more ways to take advantage of solar power. I don't mean solar-powered phone chargers, though that isn't too far off. I mean, utilizing portable solar tech to bring power to places that have no access to the electric grid.
