Dear Friends,
Recently my first tiny thermal power plant of 10 kw was successfully commissioned in village Dalbhanga of Kuchai Block in the district of Saraikela-Kharsawan in Jharkhand state of India. They never saw electric light in their life. During the day, power plant is connected to run tiny oil mill to provide fresh natural cooking oil to villagers and during night, it is connected to generator to provide lights in 200 homes. Two young boys have grasped knowledge to operate the power house and oil mill only in 3 days and now they are running the plant independently. After 11 pm, they close down the plant. Look at the benefits of tiny thermal power plant.
- It can provide lighting to 200 homes.
- It can be owned and operated by a society or village of 200 homes independently.
- The power plant is very simple and can be learnt to operate it in 3 days.
- It consists of wood fired water tube boiler which produces steam to be used in steam engine which drives generator and produces electricity.
- Power house can be run 4 to 5 hours in the evening as decided by village independently. After closing the power house at night, if somebody wants light, he can keep rechargeable battery light commonly available in the market and charge it at home.
- Power plant can be used for agro processing purpose during the day such as oil milling, rice hulling, grain threshing, flour grinding, water pumping etc and can earn back investment very quickly.
- No battery bank required and hence no maintence cost of batteries.
- Capital investment is US$10000/- which is only US$50/- per family. Distribution cable expense to 200 homes is extra.
So quick and cheapest solution of rural electrification by green energy lies in our 10 KW tiny thermal power plants.
SO FORGET GRID POWER OF GIANT POWER HOUSE.
INSTALL YOUR OWN POWER PLANT AND BE INDEPENDENT.
HAPPINESS LIES IN FREEDOM FROM GOVERNMENT RULE.
Our tiny power plants are not automatic. Continuous manual feeding of wood or biomass to boiler is essential. Moreover, electricity generated in these power plants cannot be fed into grid as in a grid feeding, frequency variation is not allowed. But electricity can be used to drive motors as a captive power plant. Please watch the following URL on youtube to see steam engines and boiler.
