Rural electrification for large residential systems

Large-scale photovoltaic systems are used more and more instead of highly-polluting diesel generators or instead of the frequently very costly connection to the public electricity grid. In developing countries, these power-generating systems can be used to meet basic needs such as lighting and communication.

Advantages:

• Not reliant on imported fuel and the public electricity grid
• Help in setting up a local infrastructure and improving the quality of life in rural areas
• Very reliable
• Low maintenance compared with diesel generators
• Silent and non-polluting
• Modular structure, can be extended if energy requirements increase
