Description

Definition
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").
