A mini-grid is a set of small-scale electricity generators interconnected to a distribution network that supplies electricity to a small, localized group of customers. It usually operates independently from the national transmission grid. Renewable energy mini-grids, powered by solar, wind or hydro, are emerging as the superstars of energy
For example, if your goal is to power your entire 2,000 sq. ft. home for a family of four, and you have net metering with rare power outages, a grid-tie system is the most economical. However, if you want to electrify a secluded hunting shelter only in the fall, an off-grid solar system is your best bet.
Rural electrification expanded through the deployment of solar mini-grid (SMG) models The project will conduct eight pre-feasibility studies in selected sites spread across the four regions (Amhara, Oromia, SNNP and Somalia), as part of Government''s prioritized plan to electrify selected off-grid areas within the coming two years.

It has been a few months since I made the transition from the solar home system (SHS) sector to the mini grid space in Africa. While the two sectors have some similarities, there are also some notable differences that have made my experience in the mini grid space both exciting and challenging. One of the biggest challenges in the mini
Solar micro-grids can be connected to the main electric grid and can integrate with it, but they can also separate themselves from the grid and operate independently. A solar micro-grid will maintain a connection to the main grid until it''s deemed necessary to switch to independent power generation or "island mode.".
Husk Power Systems recently secured $100 million to scale its mini-grid deployments in rural Africa and Asia.
