Thirty percent of the electricity used in the U.S is alone for lighting. Here is an elegant new lighting system that could save millions in the energy cost, it could improve worker productivity. It’s called Hybrid solar lighting. Some buildings are already seeing the light. It works by installing a solar collector- this system consists of a 48 inch diameter primary mirror that concentrates the light towards the secondary mirror. This secondary mirror strips of UV and infrared wave-lines. Taking off the UV wave-lines there is a heat in the fiber optics and why not, we can’t see that light anyway. The visible light is focused towards the fiber optic receiver, the fiber optical receiver contains optical fiber that in pass into the building and hear you out for building lighting.
