Lighting Vanuatu

March 29, 2010 · 0 comments

Over the past year or so, a new range of low-cost, small, battery-charged devices – for lighting and mobile phone charging – has appeared on the market, including in Vanuatu. Commercial retail prices in Vanuatu are variously US$20-100, depending on product type.

These products are described as Pico-solar. They usually consist of a solar panel and a combination LED (Light Emitting Diode) light and in-built battery. These small systems are compact, robust, affordable, and are ideal for rural environments.
