5. “ We will make electricity so cheap that only the rich will burn candles” … was true enough for the industrialized world, but his Statement did not anticipate the plight of 2 billion people - more than the world’s population in Edison’s time – who 100 years later still have no access to electricity.

Look at the stark contrast of these two pictures taken with kerosene and solar lamps separately with the same reading postures of the children during their study Even if the kerosene lamps are kept almost on the book and the children bowing their head almost over the burning flames of the kerosene lamps, it is difficult for the students to Read the books. With the kind of light these kerosene lamps give, it’s difficult to spot the Book, leave alone the small letters of the book! In contrast the solar lamps give most appropriate light
