摘要
Solar energy technologies are improving the lives of off-grid rural and rural/urban people. Solar energy provides a crucial means of preserving vaccines in rural off-grid areas, because of the high energy consumption associated with refrigeration, novel system design, which are needed to develop sustainable solutions for transporting vaccines. Large scale rural electrification programs have been carried out by the Solar Electric Company of India (SELCO), which has work with banks to provide financing schemes to enable rural people to pay for solar systems in remote villages. The company has also enabled off-grid rural people to enjoy the benefits of solar energy rates can be sustained by the local economies. Homes in the village of Irapura and Cerea are fitted with 50W solar planets for night lightening, television, and radio. A battery stores electricity generated by the solar panel for use at night.
