Solar-powered micro-grids are kicking off a decentralised energy revolution in Myanmar.
Villages in Myanmar are taking electricity generation into their own hands, turning to solar micro-grids to power their homes.
One of the solar pioneers in the country is Yoma Micro Power. It specialises in solar-powered generation and micro-grid distribution. Each of its 51 micro plants can power a small town and its surrounding areas. By the end of 2019, Yoma Micro Power plans to build 200 more solar power plants, towards a total of 2000 by 2022.
GovInsider spoke with CEO Alakesh Chetia about the advantages of going off the grid, and how solar microgrids are kicking off a decentralized energy revolution in Myanmar.
