本文介绍了一项研究的结果，该研究旨在确定印度基于可再生能源的分散发电选择在财务上可能比电网扩展提供电力更具吸引力的利基领域。考虑到发电成本以及该国的输电和配电成本，估计了在偏远地区输送电力的成本。考虑到燃煤火力发电厂产生的电力，距离在5-25公里范围内的偏远地区的电力输送成本与Rs有所不同。3.18/千瓦时为Rs。231.14/千瓦时，取决于最高可达100千瓦的峰值电力负载和负荷率。论文的结论是，与为偏远小村庄提供电力供应的电网扩建相比，微型水电、双燃料生物质气化炉系统、小型风力发电机和光伏系统可能在经济上具有吸引力。
This paper presents the results of a study undertaken for identifying niche areas in India where renewable energy based decentralized generation options can be financially more attractive as compared to grid extension for providing electricity. The cost of delivering electricity in remote areas considering cost of generation of electricity and also cost of its transmission and distribution in the country have been estimated. Considering electricity generated from coal thermal power plants, the delivered cost of electricity in remote areas, located in the distance range of 5–25km is found to vary from Rs. 3.18/kWh to Rs. 231.14/kWh depending on peak electrical load up to 100kW and load factor. The paper concludes that micro-hydro, dual fuel biomass gasifier systems, small wind electric generators and photovoltaic systems could be financially attractive as compared to grid extension for providing access to electricity in small remote villages.
