Here, we present the results of a questionnaire survey regarding Solar Home Systems (SHS) in nomadic families in Mongolia. The present study was performed to clarify user behavior, user satisfaction, problems, needs, and awareness of SHS by non-users. The survey was carried out in 67 nomadic families by the face-to-face questionnaire method, and 359 responses were received from nomadic families by the mail questionnaire survey method. From the results, most users indicated that they were satisfied with their SHS. They appreciated improvement in lighting and the ability to watch TV. It is shown that SHS is appropriate power system for nomadic lifestyle to compare with other type generation systems from the view point of users. The main problem for SHS users was a lack of after-sale service. There is a requirement to establish service chains, review of preferential treatment for the sales and support system based on market principle. In order to improve the productivity growth of nomadics, increasing electrification by SHS and enable a sharing of agricultural information are also required.
