Solar tree projects could be seen across various continents, contributing to the promotion of environmental awareness in numerous cities worldwide.

To explain the solar tree, we should first think of the constantly sent solar energy from the Sun to the Earth, which is considered as easiest and cleanest way of renewable energy. And a solar tree is a decorative fashion of an artificial tree with PV cells instead of leaves. The amount of energy produced by a solar tree is more than that of a flat array of solar cells.

      While promoting and raising awareness of  new ways of using energy resources,  such products are also used in a commercial way to provide shade and meeting places, as bicycle places. Being a simple example of complementary green building measures, these ideas show environmental benefits to larger investments.
