Usually only a small portion of rural inhabitants have access to electrification. Most of these communities depend on inefficient and hazardous fuels, such as biomass, kerosene, plastic, battery torches and candles. Fuels and its combustion process contribute to the release of greenhouse gases (GHG) into the atmosphere. Among those fuels, kerosene is a source of CO2 and black carbon.Replacing all kerosene lamps worldwide with solar lights could serve as short-term action to reduce global warming while providing more efficient technologies in places where they already pay for fuels. Kerosene and biomass powered wick lamps are far less efficient than solar powered LED lanterns. Kerosene wick lamps provide 1 to 6 lumens per square meter. LED has higher efficiency — measured in lumens per watts- quality and quantity of lighting when compared to kerosene lamps.
