• Solar Home Systems (SHS) provide reliable power for lighting and operating low powered appliances such as radio, television, small electric fans. The electricity provided by a SHS can also be used to run DC driven equipments such as DC soldering irons, drill machines, etc and to charge the battery of mobile phones.
• Larger systems can run computers, refrigerators, pumps, etc.
• SHS are easy and safe to operate and use. They can be installed anywhere.
• The useful life span of a SHS is more than 25 years.
