Here at Glow-worm we’re all about saving carbon – from our high energy efficiency boilers to our solar thermal product range, Clearly Solar.
As one of the key means to alternative energy, solar power has fast become a point of interest for homeowners and consumers across the UK. As well as innovative solar thermal technology like Clearly Solar, have you ever thought about giving your day to day life a solar-powered spruce?

What’s hot in solar?
We’ve taken a look at what’s hot in solar energy to see you through an energy efficient summer outside.
•    Solar powered watches: Solar powered watches have been around since the 1970’s and are a worthy investment for kids and adults alike. Save yourself time and money with one of these, now available cheaply and in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Make sure you’re on time for the festivals and don’t miss your favourite acts.

•    Wind-up radio: if you’re going on a camping trip but can’t quite face the silence of the great outdoors, a wind-up radio is a good compromise!  Requiring no batteries, a wind-up radio just needs a few hours of sunlight to generate play.

•    Solar mobile phone charger:  keeping your phone charged isn’t always easy when you’re on the move, camping or simply too busy getting ready to jet away somewhere. Solar powered phone chargers are an affordable, eco-friendly and easy-to-use solution to charging on the go.

•    Solar power shower: solar showers are ideal for anyone who wants to stay fresh while on the move. The travel shower consists of a portable container of water which heats in sunlight, an attached shower head and the flexibility to hang from any branch you may be roaming near. These are a brilliant solution to staying clean while on the move and save you shower time when you finally get home!

These affordable, handy gadgets make it possible to take our energy efficiency outdoors and experiment with fun ways to be more eco-friendly.
