Trinh Quang Dung Photovoltaic Lighting in the Rural Development of Vietnam Solarlab-Vietnam National Center for Science & Technology 1, Mac Dinh Ch St., 01 Dist., HCM City, Vietnam Le Hoang To 1, Mac Dinh Chi St., HCM City, Vietnam Abstract Photovoltaic (PV) lighting is the most important factor in rural development. PV school-lighting, PV family-lighting, PV lighting for cultural houses and argo-stimulative stations, etc., have been developed successfully in Vietnam. Since 1989 thousands of farmers have used solar efficient lighting from Solarlab. In particular, solar navigation flashes and solar height-indicators have demonstrated their behaviour and have been accepted both for effective working and competitive costs. Nowadays solar efficient lighting plays a leading role in the rural electrification process of Vietnam.
