Abstract
Sun daily radiates an enormous amount of energy to Earth, and yet, that energy is still not properly exploited, neither in the
World nor in Bosnia and Herzegovina. There are many reasons for this; one of the main being that relatively low-level
information about the benefits of solar energy and the ways of its utilization are available and widespread. There is no
systematic stimulation for usage of solar panels, purely relying on individual cases of installation on different types of objects.
Building the solar tree can be very beneficial for raising awareness about solar energy, its advantages and ways of usage.
Projects like this are not new, and they already have helped to raise environmental awareness in many European capitals.
This paper elaborates the possibility of building a solar tree in Sarajevo, covering technical, social and economic aspects.
Benefits and potential drawbacks are elaborated, while special emphasis is given to the specifics of its utilization due to the
geographical position of Sarajevo and corresponding number of sunny hours/days per year. Also, suggestions for potential
building sites are given, as well as description of its design .
