Overview
This article includes a series of publications that focus on topics related to PV deployment for regional development.
PV Systems for Rural Health Facilities in Developing Areas
This report outlines a technical overview towards deployment of PV systems for rural health facilities in developing areas. The demand and supply of energy in health facilities is analyzed, and international standards are presented. Technical and economic aspects of different power generation options are also discussed.
According to the report, regulatory frameworks, institutional frameworks and business models are the main frameworks for a successful PV supply program for health facilities. Similarly, lessons learnt from past projects show that the sustainability of PV systems also require one to consider the technological aspects, capacity building, operation and maintenance.
