The intention of this application note is to look at various aspects of generator sets (gensets) utilized globally to provide medium to long term backup power, and to improve system availability and reliability. Critical locations and applications depend on generators for back-up power. Examples of such critical locations are hospitals, airports, government buildings, telecommunications facilities, data centers, and nuclear power plants. Within this paper we intend to cover the main components of gensets, general applications, different fuels utilized, size selection, environmental issues, maintenance and noise pollution. The main emphasis of this document will be towards selection of gensets for critical loads and system availability.

Here is first in the series of making Gujarat State the ‘Solar Rooftop Success’ in India! We talk about Gujarat’s Open Access charges here and present a ready reckoner for the rainy days.
Open Access was introduced in the Electricity Act, 2003 by Central Electricity Regulatory Commission. It is to provide “Non-Discriminatory” usage of transmission lines and distribution lines or associated facilities with such lines or system by any licensee or consumer or a person engaged in generation in accordance with the regulations specified by Appropriate Electricity Regulatory Committee. Open Access allows large users of power having connected load of 1 MW and above to buy cheaper power from the open market.
Any Open Access consumer, in lieu of usage of network/ services, shall have to pay Transmission Charges to the STU/ Transmission Licensee, Wheeling Charges to the Distribution Licensee and Operating Charges to the State Load Dispatch Centre. In addition the Open Access consumer shall have to pay to the Distribution Licensee, Additional Surcharge to meet the fixed cost of such Distribution Licensee arising out of his obligation to supply and the Cross Subsidy Surcharge which is a compensatory charge payable to the distribution licensee of the area where the electricity is delivered to the consumer. This Cross Subsidy Surcharge shall be utilized by the Distribution Licensee to meet the requirements of current level of cross subsidy within the area of supply. Also, an Open Access customer has to bear Transmission loss, if using the Transmission lines, Wheeling loss and Distribution loss, if using the Distribution lines. The losses vary as per injection and drawl voltage.
These charges and losses vary from state to state and are revised every year by the State Electricity Regulatory Committee based on petitions filed by the Transmission and Distribution Utilities of the State.
Open Access is categorized based on the period for which open access is allowed. This period may vary from state to state.

Kathmandu | Apr-15 | Community based Rural Electrification in Nepal Status, P...Smart Villages
Smart Villages in South Asia: Kathmandu Works hop Report The Smart Villages Initiative, working with its local partner Practical Action Consulting South Asia, held a workshop in Kathmandu, Nepal on 10th April 2015. The aim of the workshop was to learn lessons from Nepal’s experience of micro/mini-hydroelectric schemes for off-grid rural communities and associated initiatives to stimulate productive enterprises which could be shared with other stakeholders in the South Asia region.
Design of a solar power System for an over populated region (Chandpur, Bangla...iosrjce
By this time, solar technology is convenient, proven and well accepted in Bangladesh. It is
environment friendly and price of solar panel is decreasing day by day. Energy generation is one of the key
factors in driving the socio-economic growth of any country. In Bangladesh, increasing demands for energy has
already exceeded the capacity from existing power plants by conventional sources of energy. Rarikandi is a place
of cultivation, for this reason population is also higher in this region. Rarikandi has no direct connection with the
town because it is surrounded by a river. But Solar energy can bring a new era for the villagers. Energy status
will be discussed in this paper with more explanation and with present and future demand. The performance of
solar system in bangladesh has also been good, as the average irradiance remains 4.99 KWh/m2/day throughout
the year and the seasonal variation of insulation is small. Chattagram is the nearest place in RETScreen software
from where climate data is taken.
Standalone Solar Power Systems are completely independent from any electric utility grid. They are
most often used in remote areas where electricity is not available or where the connection fees of the grid are
higher than the cost of an alternative energy system. Standalone solar systems (also known as autonomous, or off
grid systems) are used to collect and store solar energy to be used by household appliances. The project at last is
only accepted if the cost of overall project is suitable for financing. In this paper the cost was estimated by using
Net Present Value (NPV) method. The aim of this paper is to investigate the possibility of supplying electric
energy from solar power to the village Rarikandi, Chandpur
Kigali | Sep-15 | Off-grid Village Initiatives in KenyaSmart Villages
By S. M. Kasanga
To help collect and distil the knowledge and experience from the last 15 months of engagement in East Africa, a concluding workshop was held in Kigali, Rwanda. The workshop brought together over 40 government representatives and other key stakeholders from across the region to share information on progress and remaining challenges, and to reflect on lessons learned.
