infrastructure plays an important role in the process of economic development. access to such infrastructures as safe piped drinking water, educational and health services, electrification and efficient transport system enhance human welfare. the main objective of this study is to determine the contribution of the main types of infrastructure investments to reduction of poverty and more balance...

In this paper, technical viability of holographic solar module as an alternative energy source in rural India has been studied . The working principle of solar tracking with HPC has been explained. The design aspect of PV system components such as PV module, Battery sizing, Inverter module have been reflected. The system has been tested with hardware simulated input parameters for the desired o...

The efficiency of nonequilibrium electron trapping by capture centers in alkali halide crystals, quartz, and polymethyl-methacrylate exposed to an intense electron beam with a beam current density of about 20 A/cm 2 is studied. The trapped charge is estimated from the amount of irradiation-induced electrification of high-resistivity materials. It is shown that traps having captured thermalized ...

The paper presents an electromechanical auto synchronized wind energy conversion system (WECS) for larger penetration of renewable energy sources (RES) in the rural electrification systems. The architecture of the WECS uses two stator windings at power frequency which provides harvesting of power to flow from WECS to load and to grid side when the generated power is in access. Asymmetrical six ...

We report on a systematic ground-based validation of DMSP-OLS night lights imagery to detect rural electrification in Vietnam. Based on an original survey of village-level units in Vietnam, this study compares nighttime light output from the U.S. Air Force Defense Meteorological Satellite Program’s Operational Linescan System (DMSP-OLS) against ground-based survey data on electrical infrastruct...
