Flexible Operation ROSH On Grid Solar Panel Kits For Radio Stations

Product Description

On Grid Mini Grid Solar Energy System

Electricity access is essential for people’s lives and livelihoods: from using fridges to store food and medicine; charging mobile phones to stay connected; lighting up households and schools at night; to powering local businesses.

Applications include:

• Village power supplies
• Island power supplies
• Hotels & mountain resorts
• Remote farms
• Lodges & Cabins
• Hospitals & Schools
• Telecommunication and radio stations
• Mobile applications

Many of these systems are currently based on diesel gensets, given their relatively low capital costs, operational flexibility, and controllability. However, diesel fuel is expensive and, in many of these locations, difficult and expensive to get to site. The cost of diesel genset electricity is, therefore, generally considerably higher than electricity from large-scale grids, although less than for stand-alone systems. There is growing interest in PV deployment, and a growing view that the savings in diesel fuel can more than offset the capital costs of these PV systems.

Yet 590 million people in Africa currently live without access to electricity, the majority in rural areas. These areas risk being left even further behind.

Those who have access often rely on polluting, unreliable and costly diesel-powered generators. Solar-powered mini-grids could be the answer to rural access and dirty energy. Well-suited to small, remote communities, renewable energy mini-grids can now be the cheaper, greener option for rural electrification.

But it’s not that simple. There is no ‘one size fits all’ approach that will work in every African country, let alone every small community.
