Abstract

Designing a sustainable electrification power grid for remote areas in developing countries is a significant challenge. Governments are increasingly prioritizing the energy sector by implementing new policies and green energy corridors. However, many studies on renewable and hybrid energy systems overlook crucial factors like technology, economical business survey, environment concern, and social (TEES) factors, which are vital for rural energy solutions. This chapter introduces a framework incorporating decision analysis, focusing on the availability of renewable local sources while in view of TEES aspects for power projects. Various energy alternatives are evaluated, and optimal combinations are assessed through decision analysis. A case study in Himachal Pradesh uses real meteorological data to verify and analyses the effectiveness of the proposed methodology. Conclusions shows that methodology, using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), leads to optimized energy systems with significant benefits, especially for power grid networks.
