LITTLE SUN

Artist Olafur Eliasson and engineer Frederik Ottesen created Little Sun to bring clean, affordable light to the 1.1 billion people living in regions without electricity. The iconic, portable solar lamp of high quality is the optimal entry into the private use of solar energy as a light producer – it is perfect for camping, festival visits, celebrations at the beach or to light up your house, garden or balcony. Children love the lamp - as a night light or for playing – it teaches them about sustainable living in a playful way. The dimming function allows you to adjust the brightness of the lamp as you need it. Five hours of charging in the sun will produce more than 50 hours of light at the darkest setting or four hours at the brightest setting.
The humble idea of creating a small, portable solar lamp for people without access to electricity in Ethiopia has now grown into a global project that has transformed more than one million lives using the power of the sun. By purchasing one Little Sun in Europe, you provide one in each African society at locally affordable prices.
