1. Solar Panel

The fan is equipped with a solar panel that captures sunlight and converts it into electricity. This is the key component that makes the fan “solar-powered.” The solar panel is usually located on the top or side of the fan.

• Daylight Capture: The solar panel generates power as long as there’s sunlight. The more direct sunlight it receives, the more electricity it produces.
• 
  

2. Power Storage (Battery)

Many solar fans include a rechargeable battery that stores the electricity generated by the solar panel. This allows the fan to keep running even when the sun isn’t shining, such as during cloudy days or at night.

• Storage: The battery stores excess energy produced during sunny hours and uses that stored power when the solar panel isn’t generating enough energy.
• 
  

3. Fan Motor

The electricity from the solar panel or battery is then used to power the fan motor. This motor drives the fan blades to create airflow, providing a cooling effect in the room or area where the fan is located.

• Adjustable Speed: Many solar fans allow users to adjust the speed, so they can control how much air is being circulated.

4. Eco-Friendly & Energy Efficient

Since the solar fan is powered by the sun’s energy, it doesn't require electricity from the grid, reducing electricity consumption and lowering utility bills. It’s also an environmentally friendly option because it doesn’t rely on fossil fuels.

• Zero Operating Cost: Once installed, solar fans don't incur ongoing electricity costs because they’re powered by the sun.
• 
  

5. Durability & Maintenance

Solar fans are generally designed to be durable and low-maintenance. The solar panels are built to withstand weather conditions, and the fan itself typically requires minimal upkeep beyond occasional cleaning

It’s a simple yet effective way to stay cool without relying on traditional electrical energy!
