We relay on he centralized grid for all our electricity requirement but in the recent past due to uncertain availability of grid electricity we are also looking for the ways of reducing our dependency on the central grid and solutions like backup inverters and backup generates are emerging.
But the grater question is, are we moving towards a scenario of decentralized power generation?
Well it is not unlikely and in the current era where we have a lot of options of clean power generation ie solar, wind, biomass, geothermal, tidal, hydro and they all can serve as a source for decentralized generation.
Solar Photovoltaic and biomass are the most promising options of all in Indian context. solar PV can easily satisfy all the needs in both urban and rural areas in the form of roof top personal generation units or a community solar plant. whereas biomass can address all the low grade energy as well as can serve as the fuel foe electricity generation.
The future scenario of energy generation can be seen where every man is for himself, maybe its too far fetched to say this but we certainly moving on this path even if the speed is of the tortoise or is it of an ice berg,s speed well i cant say for sure...
