Rural electrification based on renewable energies. A Review

Olatz Azurza, Iñaki Arranbide, I. Zubía · 2017 · Renewable Energy and Power Quality Journal

Summary. Rural areas require different electrification approaches than urban zones. Renewable energy systems with microgrids offer practical solutions for remote and sparsely populated regions, balancing economic, social, and environmental needs. This paper compares rural and urban electricity demands, reviews microgrid designs, evaluates energy storage options, and outlines the process for building new microgrids powered by renewable sources.
