Group 1 Yang Aohan, MaijaLeino, HastaTamang, ArvindSolanki, Nikki Shrestha
Core problem:Sustainable use of energy from the available local energy resources • Conventional practice: use of forest timber for fuel wood • Resulted: Forest resource depletion+ natural disaster like landslides degrading soil quality y for agriculture. • Uncertainty in available energy sources for the availability of the fuel wood • So what could be the available resources for the fulfillment of energy supply at the household level?

Project Area: Footer
The Project Area Description • Covers 23 Community Forest User Groups (CFUGs) of 8 Village Development Committee (VDC). • VDCs have an important role in the decision making of the villages • 4200 households with average 5 family members(approx: 21000 people) • Electricity availability is challenging • Conventional wood stoves still widely in use for cooking • We have chosen energy issues as the main theme of this project work Footer
Mechanism of working Footer
LOCAL STAKEHOLDERS • Village development committee (VDC) • CFUG plus working group • Group members+ people Footer
Technologies used • Solar power • Biogas+ biomass • Wind energy • Micro hydropower • ICS (Improved cooking stoves) Footer
Solar Power • Solar Photovoltaic • 1 panel about 5ft X 3 ft provides anywhere between 130 – 150 W peak • 1 bulb = 26 kWh per month • 1 refrigerator = 182kWh per month • Solar thermal with biogas cogeneration Footer

Wind Power Advantages of Wind Power: • Reliable, Durable and simple to operate. • No consumable fuel required. • Wind, the only source. • Pollution free and therefore environment friendly. • Spare parts service readily available from 100W to 400W • Low operation and maintenance cost. • It is possible to get 120kWh of electricity/month with a single 6 kW wind turbine. Footer
Wind Power Wind Site Selection • Identified potential wind sites through field surveys. • Enough space for installation of systems and potentiality of demonstration effects • Village without electricity and no possibility of grid electricity connection for coming 5 years Footer
Type of off-grind hydro power in Nepal • Mini-hydro (100 kW - 1MW) o (5KW-100KW) • Pico-hydro (up to 5 KW) including water mill • Micro hydro(5KW to 100 KW) power required=4200*90=378 kW, assuming 90 watt/HH
Technology and addedvalue • Solar: electricity • Wind: electricity • Biogas: cooking and waste management • Micro hydropower: electricity • Waste burning: electricity and waste management • Money fromsellingelectricity, microgrids? • Someexamples • Potential of wind: for a 3kW wind turbine it is 120 kW/ month • Solar : 1 panel about 5ft X 3 ft provides anywhere between 130 – 150 W peak • Mostlikely a combination of differenttechnologieswillbe the best! • Goodexperiencesfrombiogas and microhydroplants Footer
Biogas • Feed used from kitchen waste, animal waste and human excreta(optional) • Only CDM project in Nepal • Sufficient production of gas for a family of 5 . Footer
Improved Cooking Stove • Less smoke production • Consumes less wood • Reduce women work load • Improve indoor environment and Health Footer
