The role of microgrids in accelerating energy access

摘要: This paper presents an approach that could be adopted as part of electrification strategies in developing countries. It makes use microgrid designs which can expanded and replicated a modular fashion across wide geographic areas. The process designing such system is demonstrated with case study the state Bihar India. Results from allow costs by microgrids to compared those extending grid, minimum distances grid where systems would financially preferable determined. Taking into consideration additional benefits offered ability provide highly reliable electricity supply, reduce transmission losses, expand smart features facilitate integration renewable energies, it convincing alternative existing
