Planning Models for Electricity Access : Where Do we Go from Here

Well-integrated planning models can help cover the whole planning spectrum - from the national level down to granular distribution at the village level. Integration of models is critical to ensure that investment plans are realistic and accurately reflect the costs that utilities face in practice. The foregoing review of power system planning models and sophisticated stand-alone geographic information systems (GIS) - based models suggests the following questions: is there a need to bring the two paradigms closer? If so, do analytical frameworks exist to accomplish the task? Key word: technology need; increase in energy consumption; Access to Electricity; power system...

Operation and Maintenance Strategies for Hydropower : Handbook for Practitioners and Decision Makers

This handbook seeks to raise awareness among utility managers, decision makers, and other stakeholders of the benefits of developing robust O&M strategies for all existing hydropower plants and those under development. Unlike many other forms of generation, the cost of implementing a robust O&M strategy for hydropower accounts for a relatively small percentage of the value of electricity generated. However, failure to implement adequate and sufficient O&M can result in very high costs due to increased losses of production (direct and indirect) and higher needs for rehabilitation and equipment replacement. Hence carrying out appropriate O&M strategies and related programs has...
