Description

SOLARPOWYN indicates whether the household has solar power.

The information in SOLARPOWYN is taken from the household record, linked to the record of the woman respondent. This information applies to household residents, not temporary visitors, so researchers may wish to exclude visitors using the RESIDENT variable (with visitors coded "2").

Comparability

SOLARPOWYN varies slightly in question wording across samples, with some surveys referring to "solar power" and others asking about a "solar panel."

Comparability - Standard DHS

SOLARPOWYN is a country-specific household variable not included in the standard DHS questionnaire.
