MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES FOR RENEWABLE ENERGY MINI GRID OPERATIONS

Mini-grids are an essential means of providing electricity to rural communities and areas with limited grid access. These small-scale power systems can be installed in remote areas to generate electricity, often from renewable sources such as solar, wind, or hydro. However, mini-grids, like any other power system, require regular maintenance to operate effectively and efficiently. In this blog,…

The Cookstove Revolution: A Game-Changer for the Environment and Health

In many parts of the world, cooking is still done using traditional open fires or rudimentary stoves that burn solid fuels such as wood, charcoal, or animal dung. These stoves release large amounts of smoke and pollutants into the air, which have serious health consequences for those who breathe them in. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that exposure to household air pollution…
