摘要: Abstract This paper presents the results of a study undertaken for identifying niche areas in India where renewable energy based decentralized generation options can be financially more attractive as compared to grid extension providing electricity. The cost delivering electricity remote considering and also its transmission distribution country have been estimated. Considering generated from coal thermal power plants, delivered areas, located distance range 5–25 km is found vary Rs. 3.18/kWh 231.14/kWh depending on peak electrical load up 100 kW factor. concludes that micro-hydro, dual fuel biomass gasifier systems, small wind electric generators photovoltaic systems could access villages.
