When night falls on Lake Victoria and the fishermen from Mbita in Western Kenya get ready for night fishing, Osram is lighting the dark. The men go fishing with energy-saving lamps instead of kerosene lamps as in the past. This was very expensive and meant CO2 emissions, fire danger, burns, and the kereosene smoke causes cancer. In the region, Osram has launched a unique project for producing light independently from a grid-based power supply. At specially constructed energy hubs with solar panels, the local people can recharge batteries for lamps and other electrical appliances at low cost and without damaging the environment. Osram was given the German Sustainability Prize 2008 for energy efficient products. (Paul Heller, SiemensTV)

i finally got the light to go on without using myself as Ground/Earth the things was i had to connect 1 wire to the bulb/ligt glass itself and then it goes on without ground/earth i also made a switch so i can boost the light power. i connected 4 wires to each leg of the light, instead of 2 as i have seen on some site on the net i placed the camera circuit inside a small box, and then i used speaker connectors to connect the light up to it, i made it like this so i can always reuse my inverter for other projects sofare this proof of concept works 100%

I was so tired of low-voltage lighting transformers and decided to do something. And these solar lights are useless except. For me, the solution of the landscape lit by 120 volts. I went to my local Home Depot in Bridgeville, Pennsylvania, and the experience of the children of Don and Steve in the electronics department is able to do the same jobs. Costs have been excavated at $ 500.00 with me doing all the trenches and connections. I've always wanted a 120 voltlandscape lights. I made this video as a reference on how I do it for the cable guy and I felt that the Board of Home Depot's performance.

This video can be downloaded here: www.ashdenawards.org SEEDS won an Ashden Award for Sustainable Energy in 2006. To find out more visit the link above and check out the Ashden Awards Blog ashdenawards.blogspot.com Sarvodaya Economic Enterprise Development Services (SEEDS) has financed the installation of around 52000 solar home systems (SHSs) in rural areas of Sri Lanka. Grid electricity extends to about 55% of Sri Lanka's population, but to only 40% in rural areas. The infrastructure is gradually being extended; but there is a shortage of generating capacity, since the generation of power has not increased alongside an ever-increasing demand. The average rural family in Sri Lanka spends 19% of their income on energy, and many can afford off-grid electricity with a suitable credit system. SEEDS works through accredited solar installers to identify potential loan customers. These loans enable poor households in rural areas to purchase SHSs, and receive the benefits of improved light, communications and entertainment. The monthly repayments are set at a rate which the household can afford to pay, and the loans are paid back over a period of one to four years. Local field officers employed by SEEDS collect monthly repayments, and also carry out checks and minor repairs to the systems. SEEDS has financed the installation of around 52000 SHSs (out of a total of 71000 installed in Sri Lanka) since 1998. It has also installed 13 micro-hydro schemes in rural areas and has given ...
