Advantages
Each household has
independent system
Allow flexibility in electricity
use
Relatively lesser cost
Option-B
Centralized O&M
Small DC and AC micro grids Expansion of system is easier
Option-C
AC Mini-Grids
Option-D
Smart (hybrid) Mini-Grids
Limitations
Inflexibility in expansion of
grid

However the labour cost was fixed and thus has little margin over
each kg of product
Used kerosene generator in emergency, which was very expensive and
environmentally polluting (Cost of electricity generation : INR 15/unit)
