Reintroducing the sun

Parans presents its revolutionary solar lighting for Sweden's Government Commission on Sustainable Development.

The Parans System collects sunlight outdoors and brings it indoors using fiber optic cables.

The Commission on Sustainable Development arranges the seminar "New Technology for Sustainability - challenges and opportunities" on June 17. New Technology is needed in order to limit the ongoing climate changes. Without it there are no possibilities to achieve the necessary, large reductions of emissions of greenhouse gases. As much consensus as there might be on this point, questions remain on how to bring out this new technology and on which control mechanisms and politics that are most efficient?
Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt initiates the seminar and will use examples on sustainable technologies in order to continue discussions on possibilities and challenges with members of the commission and the other participants of the seminar.

This solution is based on sunlight being collected by solar panels on buildings' roofs or facades and transported into the said buildings via fiber optic cables. The result is the most healthiest lighting in the business in combination with energy savings thanks to reduced use of artificial lighting.

First, sunlight is collected by Parans Solar Panels outdoors. The sunlight is then brought into the building through the Parans Optical Cables. Indoors, the sunlight flows out through Parans Luminaires. This technology is called Fiber Optic Solar Lighting.
