  • Rural Energy Access Through Solar Home Systems: Use Patterns and Opportunities for Improvement
    Energy for Sustainable Development 37 (2017) 33–50 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Energy for Sustainable Development Rural energy access through solar home systems: Use patterns and opportunities for improvement Ognen Stojanovski a,⁎,MarkThurbera, Frank Wolak a,b a Program on Energy and Sustainable Development (PESD), Stanford University, United States b Department of Economics and PESD, Stanford University, United States article info abstract Article history: Solar photovoltaic (PV) products are touted as a leading solution to long-term electrification and development Received 24 November 2016 problems in rural parts of Sub-Saharan Africa. Yet there is little available data on the interactions between Accepted 28 November 2016 solar products and other household energy sources (which solar PVs are often assumed to simply displace) or Available online xxxx the extent to which actual use patterns match up with the uses presumed by manufacturers and development agencies. This paper probes those questions through a survey that tracked approximately 500 early adopters of solar home systems in two off-grid markets in Africa. We find that these products were associated with large reductions in the use of kerosene and the charging of mobile phones outside the home. To a lesser extent, the use of small disposable batteries also decreased. However, solar home systems were, for the most part, not used to power radios, TVs, or flashlights. We also did not observe adopter households using these solar products to support income-generating activities. © 2016 International Energy Initiative. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. Background and motivation estimated to represent less than 5% of the off-grid solar market by number of products sold as of June 2016 (GOGLA and Lighting Global, 2016).
