[0009] The present invention discloses a waste bin 100 comprising at least one solar panel 1, wherein the waste bin 100 has a lighting system all around it, preferably illuminated by LEDs; wherein the lighting system has at least one light sensor configured to activate the lighting system when it gets dark; wherein the waste bin 100 has a collection system configured to detect the remaining storage capacity of the waste bin 100; and further, the waste bin has at least one battery configured to store energy. Said solar panel 1 is configured to supply power to the electronic devices of the waste bin 100, wherein the waste bin 100 has at least one USB port, at least one USB-C port, and at least one induction charger. Furthermore, said waste bin 100 comprises an internet system integrated into its structure.

[0010] The operation of the present invention can be described by the following configuration: the solar panel 1 captures solar energy that is sent to a charge controller, which powers a battery and a solar inverter, finally, the solar inverter powers the USB and USB-C connections, the induction charger, the LED inputs and the integrated internet system.

[0011] The trash can 100 has a bag on one of its sides, this bag is located next to the induction charger, allowing the device, which is being charged, to be in a position safe from damage.

[0012] The USB and USB-C inputs are included in a device that has an on and off function, and the USB and USB-C inputs are located on one side of the trash can 100.

[0013] The lighting system of the trash can 100 is made all around it, on the sides and on the front and back parts of the trash can 100, so as to allow any type of information in its structure.

[0014] The lighting system has at least one light sensor, which checks the brightness of the environment, automatically activating or deactivating the LED panels and the lighting system.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, said waste bin 100 has a rectangular shape.

[0016] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, said waste bin 100 has a square shape.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the trash can 100 uses a lock for opening and closing.

[0018] In an alternative configuration of the present invention, the trash can 100 can use one of those selected for its opening and closing: padlock or seal.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the trash can 100 has a length between 100 cm and 150 cm, more specifically between 110 cm and 140 cm, even more specifically, the trash can 100 is 133 cm long.

[0020] In an alternative embodiment of the present invention, the waste bin 100 has a length between 150 cm and 200 cm.

[0021] In a preferred configuration of the present invention, the trash can 100 has a width between 50 cm and 80 cm, more specifically between 60 cm and 70 cm, even more specifically, the trash can 100 has a width of 65 cm.
