Using Renewable Energy to Include Off-grid Rural Schools into the National Equity Project Plan Ceibal

In this paper the distribution of world's electricity sources is presented graphically. The contribution of renewable energy sources is focused here. The CO 2 emission rate has been discussed from various aspects. A prediction model is presented for world electricity generation capacity, electricity consumption, CO 2 emission rate and renewable energy harnessing. At last a brief energy prediction model is shown for a model country (Bangladesh). CO 2 emission, Energy prediction model I. INTRODUCTIONWith the changing climate people are becoming more and more concerned about environment. According to the World Energy Outlook 2009 the current energy policies account for 75% of the greenhouse-gas emission [1]. So, it has become need of era that electrical energy should be produced in a more bio friendly way. This paper is divided into two major parts. In section II the distribution of electrical energy sources, distribution of renewable energy sources, net electricity generation, electricity consumption and C0 2 emission rate by year and area has been discussed. In section III, depending on the current trend of electricity generation, a prediction model has been proposed for generation from different sources. A prediction for CO 2 emission and desired renewable electricity generation has been shown. At the end of the second part based on the World Energy Outlook 2009 data an energy prediction is done for a model country (Bangladesh).

Abstract-From a path breaking innovation, electricity has grown into one of the most important factors helping us to sustain civilization today. The entire world economy is dependent on technology today. Yet, certain remote areas are deprived of this basic amenity, either due to the lack of concern from the authorities or due to the unawareness about harvesting locally available resources. In this paper, the challenges faced by one such area are identified and the issue is solved by utilizing alternate energy source. This paper describes how rural electrification can be implemented in a cost-effective manner without compromising efficiency. The area under study is located farthest from the existing power grid and the high expenditure that has to be incurred in its electrification withdrew the authority from this task. However the project team formed under the Local Integrated Network of Kerala IEEE Students identified that the solar energy can be harvested in the area. All the project parameters were analyzed in detail and thorough research was done on the land and its inhabitants. Underground cables were chosen as the means of transmission. The project implemented provided electricity for basic lighting devices. The project can be viewed from a global perspective, as the characteristics of the area selected are identical to similar non-electrified regions around the world.Index Terms-Solar energy, energy conservation, energy efficiency, renewable energy, rural areas.
