The hospital has installed simple concentrated solar power (CSP) systems to create steam, with which they sterilise all their medical equipment and laundry. The hospital also has solar photovoltaic systems to generate electricity for some buildings and outdoor lights, and solar thermal systems to create hot water for bathing patients and preparing medicine. The various solar systems cater for the 200 staff who live on campus, as well as up to 250 inpatients.Locations:Asia-Bihar-IndiaDate:8 Jul, 2010Credit:© Harikrishna Katragadda / GreenpeaceMaximum size:3872px X 2592pxKeywords:Climate (campaign title)-Energy-Hospitals-KWCI (GPI)-Men-One person-Renewable energy-Roofs-Solar energy-Solar power stationsShoot:Decentralised Renewable Energy in BiharThe eastern state of Bihar is one of the most energy deprived regions in all of India. Government policy to distribute electricity through a centralised grid is failing to provide power to people in rural areas, and tens of millions of people have no access to electricity at all. If this traditional, fossil-fuel-based approach continues, the lack of energy access will soon become a bottleneck to Bihar's otherwise rapid development. This documentation includes various initiatives taken by local entrepreneurs who are successfully developing decentralized non-conventional energy production, using solar and discarded rice husk power systems.Related Collections:Decentralised Renewable Energy Report (All Photographers)Renewable Energy (All Photographers)
