Abstract

The electrical energy generation device comprises a photovoltaic cell 1 and a battery. The device is adapted to be hung on a radiator, preferably by radiator clips 6. The photovoltaic cell is typically arranged so as to sit on top of the radiator to receive sunlight through a window. The received sunlight is converted to electricity by the photovoltaic cell and is used to charge the battery. The battery provides power to a socket (7, figure 2) into which electronic appliances can be plugged. The received sunlight may also be used to power halogen lamps provided in a chamber of the device so as to provide convective heating even when a central heating system to which the radiator is connected is off. The convective heating can be controlled by a user interface 5. Inlet (4, figure 2) and outlet 3 grilles define an air flow path of the chamber. The halogen lamps may also provide a source of light in the event of a mains electricity power failure.
