This document discusses microgrids, including their technologies, impacts, and conclusions. It describes the power scenarios of India and some local areas. Microgrids can utilize technologies like combined heat and power, smart metering, efficient batteries, and interconnection systems. They provide sustainable energy and reduce emissions while benefiting communities economically. Microgrids are viable in remote areas lacking transmission infrastructure. Government policies aim to support microgrid development through funding, regulations, and carbon credits.

22. Sources of Funding
• Government Subsidies :
• 1. Ministry of New and Renewable Energy
(MNRE) provides a subsidy of 30% of project
cost
• 2.Under the Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran
Yojana (RGGVY) scheme launched by
Government of India provisions Rs.540 crore

23. • Social Venture Capital funding :
• Lok Capital
• IFCI Venture funding
• Green venture funding

26. • Projects on Turnkey basis
-Implemented by Mera Gao Power(MPG) in
Rajasthan, India
• Setting up Cooperatives & collaboration with
Micro finance institutions.
- Eg. Ujiivan Financial Services,Bangalore

27. Impact of Taxation Policy
• Taxation Policies related to social VC are
relaxed
• Reduced Heat dissipation , CO2 emission
results in improved carbon credits.
• Tax Exemption on equipment & Services by
MNRE

28. Major Cost Consideration

36. Cool Quotes
• “If you look at the improvement of the human condition, it’s
related to intensity of energy use,” ----- Bill Gates
• CEO of Joule Assets, thinks it’s coming sooner than later.
“The multi-stakeholder microgrid is going to take off”
• “When you go to a place where there’s no electricity and then
you switch on the lights, it’s difficult to even explain the
impact.” Shripad Menon from MPG mused

37. Conclusion
• Micro-Grid enables remote locations to access
pollution free energy
• Use of micro grid gives impetus to the use of
Renewable sources of energy
• In an event of Power Grid failure Micro-Grid is
one of the best alternatives.
