Luminous Power Technologies
(P) Ltd has launched an LEDbased
solar lighting solution,
which the company claims to be an
ideal low-cost solution for rural
home lighting requirements.
This equipment has PWM based
compact electronic circuitry with
high efficiency. It offers uniform and
constant bright light output over
entire battery voltage range. It is
specially designed for maximum
energy harvesting from connected
solar module, as compared to other
products. This equipment can
provide light output ranging
between 11 to 102 hours.
This high standard and low cost
solution is the first in the series of
new offerings from the house of
Luminous Power Technologies in the
renewable energy genre, a company
statement said. The innovative,
energy efficient LED based design of
this new product with a single light
output is at par with 11W CFL. It
can be termed as single solution for
all daily household lighting needs.
The statement, quoting National
Sample Service Organisation
(NSSO) statistics, observed about 39
per cent of households in rural India
still use kerosene to meet their
lighting requirements. Kerosene
lamps generally provide poor quality
light; produce greenhouse gas
emissions and also have significant
health and safety hazards associated
with them, the release said.
