H1 Fuel for Lighting
The proportion of households with access to electricity can provide planners useful indication of areas where community lighting needs to be extended. Data on types of fuel can be analyzed to forecast future demands for various sources of energy and hence plan for power installations.
Enter in the box provided, the code which corresponds to the fuel used by the household for its lighting facility. If the household is using electricity, enter 1 even if it is not used most of the time. If two or more types of lighting are used, except electricity, e.g., kerosene and oil, oil and candles, etc., report the type of lighting which is used most of the time. Enter, therefore, the code corresponding to the type of lighting used more often than the other.
The types of fuel for lighting and their codes are as follows:
1 Electricity
2 Kerosene (gaas)
3 Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)
4 Oil (vegetable, animal, etc.)
5 Others, specify
If the household uses a generator, report the fuel being used to run the generator.
