Kyocera Solar turns daylight into more than night lights. A subsidiary of Kyocera International, the company develops and sells solar-powered electric systems used to shed light on such dark spots as rural homes, recreational vehicle sites, remote telecom and pipeline monitoring equipment, and traffic signal locations. Its solar-powered water pumping systems can be used in areas where there is no sufficient water supply. Kyocera Solar sells integrated system packages directly to industrial users (product manufacturers, utilities, and corporate and government entities); it also provides products and support to a global network of more than 1,500 distributors and dealers, mostly in the US.
