This database was collected in the form of interviews from 250 rural households in Busia and Siaya Counties in Western Kenya during the months of November-December 2019. The aim is to provide insights from the energy consumption patterns of rural households and the post-electrification effects documenting demographic, socioeconomic and fuels consumption variables from two sample groups: households that have access to grid-electricity (124 observations) and households without access to grid-electricity (126 observations) - from the latter, 60 observations did not have access to electricity at all, while 66 had access to a solar home system. Acronyms found in database: SHS - Solar home systems LPG - Liquified Petroleum Gas KSh - Kenyan Shillings, national currency W - Watts kWh - Kilowatts hour
