The demand for energy, especially in remote rural areas, is still nowhere near getting fulfilled. Though a rural electrification programme has been promoted in India since the late 1960's, there are still large areas which remain untouched. In recent years, efforts have been geared towards decentralised sources of renewable energy, which can be generated and administered by the local community. Conventional grid systems are required for large-scale use. But decentralised sources can fill the gaps, especially in rural areas.
