Microgrids Enable A Greater Level Of Penetration For RE
Says Sanjith S Shetty, Vice Chairman and Managing Director, Soham Renewable Energy India (P) Ltd, in conversation with R Srinivasan.
Is Microgrid An Answer To Rural India's Power Woes?
Microgrid can be defined as a small network of electricity users with a local source of supply that is usually attached to a centralised national grid, but is able to function independently. From India’s context, rural microgrid is a small electricity network implemented at a village level with its own generation unit and the electricity generated thus supplied primarily to the village households and in some cases, to some commercial load centres. These microgrids are often not connected to the national grid and have been set up in the villages where there is no grid connection or even if there is a grid, power supply is highly erratic.
