Renewable energy integration in to microgrid: Powering rural Maharashtra State of India
Summary. Maharashtra State in India faces severe energy shortages and relies heavily on depleting fossil fuels. This paper demonstrates that renewable energy resources exist at scale in rural Maharashtra and proposes integrating these sources through microgrids to eliminate forced power cuts. The authors argue that successful integration requires improved infrastructure, institutional reforms, capacity building, and attention to social and market factors.
