Sustainable Emergency Light for Scarcely Electrified Area of India

About 200 million people of India are deprived of grid based power supply, prominently in inaccessible hilly and rural hamlets of the country. Present research is an attempt to design, install, operate use, and maintain the hand on set of light source to address the unserved populations dwelling in electricity inaccessible areas in India. The approach is designing and developing a low cost sustainable or solar emergency light through, “Solar Home Lighting Systems” or “Sustainable Emergency Light” technology, which is one of the smart and innovative approaches of illuminating sources by harnessing solar energy to light the darkened places. The attractive daily usable gadget with surged luminous efficiency, durability, extended life, ecofriendly, compact, and efficient to work at both small values of current and voltages and they are growing acceptance. The safe and non-ignition start, is the uniqueness over conventional emergency light, and solar energy founded. The stand-alone device with mobile charging port with luminosity of 150 Lux can be used in lighting the escape routes, open areas and high risk areas. Under the crisis of pandemic of Covid-19 virus, the portable solar lights is safe and riskless light source for the economic backward classes, and can provide the children and students for online undisrupted study up to about 8 to 10 hours at low cost in remote areas.
