One solar lamp. Four very different jobs.
Sol, BRIGHT's next-generation portable solar lamp, is engineered from the ground up for the conditions, constraints and demands of humanitarian response. It delivers consistent, reliable performance across diverse environments, logistics efficiency at scale, and reduced total cost of ownership — wherever it's deployed.
Between 2024 and 2025, we deployed Sol across humanitarian response, emergency preparedness, transitional housing and off-grid contexts, on four continents:
→ Humanitarian response — Bidibidi refugee settlement, Uganda: 98.6% of 140 households surveyed found Sol easy to use, and 51% reported reduced lighting costs
→ Emergency preparedness — Kyiv, Kherson and Kharkiv, Ukraine: Sol kept shelters lit through repeated blackouts
→ Transitional housing — Colombia and Mexico: with TECHO, Sol lights shelters for months, while families wait for grid connection, which can sometimes take years
→ Off-grid — Sichuan Province, China: students nearly doubled their evening study time under Sol's stable, flicker-free light
What those deployments reveal, across a broad spectrum of operational realities, is a product that performs consistently where performance matters most.
Across these deployments, Sol has delivered:
⚡️ Consistent field performance
💰 Lower total cost of ownership
📦 High logistics efficiency (up to 25,920 units per 40GP container)
Available in three battery capacities, Sol lets procurement teams match the lamp to programme specification, whatever the context.
