The lighthouse on Sule Skerry
Sule Skerry is one of the remotest lighthouses off the north coast of Scotland. It was first operational in 1895.
There is a large bank of solar panels, facing south of course. But I imagine that in these northern locations they provide only a small amount of the energy needed to run the light.(c) Nicholas Mutton, CC BY-SA 2.0

Lady Isle Lighthouse. Ayrshire landmark, used whenever The Open is at Troon as a scenic backdrop for the scorecard on television. The island is very small made of a gabbro like igneous rock and is very hard to walk upon. Landing is discouraged for most of the year, by the elements in winter and to protect the nesting birds throughout the summer. In September the remains of the nesting season could be seen along with a big roost of teal. The guano fertilises the soil and the resulting lush vegetation hides the treacherous boulder fields below. Even with the lighthouse, the island still claims shipping, there was the remains of a "gin palace" scattered all over one shore.

Ardmore lighthouse. At least partially powered by solar panels, which seems a bit optimistic given Mull's climate. I do admit it looks ok in this picture but about half an hour after this was taken, the heavens opened and it poured for a couple of hours.
