According to the French wikipedia site, there are 20,000 strobe lights which were placed on the Eiffel Tower to celebrate the year 2000. They are still there with their 40 km of wiring and light up for 10 minutes on the hour every hour after sunset until 1 or 2 am.

What does the sun give the particles in the Eiffel tower?

The Sun gives off EM radiation and the height of the Eiffel tower inducts certain wavelengths of radio waves and the extra energy creates added free electrons. Also, the bombardment of light photons over such a large conductive surface acts much like a weak solar panel knocking loose electrons in the metal atoms. So, when put together, the Sun gives the Eiffel tower electron particles (electricity), although not enough to power the radio transmitter that it is used with.
