This is the case of the Sundarbans Delta, Photo Gallery. Poor access to energy services and the consequent lack of opportunities is further compounded by very high population density and poverty in the Sundarbans. An extremely high proportion of the population (circa 34 cento) subsists below the poverty line. This is accompanied by a high dependence on the natural system for biomass and other terrestrial and aquatic resources leading to further degradation of the natural ecosystem.
In order to guarantee access to energy and mitigate the level of electric exclusion in these communities, several exemplary projects have been developed in Sundarban, including the micro solar power station at Rajat Jubilee promoted by WWF-India, Photo Gallery.

The revenue so collected should cover the operating expenses and the cost of Annual Maintenance Contract (AMC) from year six until year 15 which is the design life of the power station. Cost of AMC for the first five years and cost of battery replacement has been capitalised in the project cost. Photo Gallery.

The system cost is little more than the standard centralised solar Photo Voltaic systems being installed in India today. Tuttavia, Photo Gallery. Photo Gallery.
Women of the Sun
TERI (The Energy and Resources Institute), in collaboration with the Ramakrishna Mission (RKM), is empowering the women of the Sunderbans to promote the use of solar power. This pilot project has successfully created viable enterprises, on the supply side, targeting women entrepreneurs. These enterprises have been created not only to provide solar PV-based services in remote and interior villages, but also to provide repair and maintenance services to already existing products and systems. An organizational set up, called MFEDO (Photo Gallery), has been created within the cluster organization Kalpataru of the RKM, Photo Gallery. Photo Gallery, facilitating market linkages and forming Self-Help-Groups. This initiative has been sponsored by the National Renewable Energy laboratory, Photo Gallery.
The specific beneficiaries of this pilot project were determined on the basis of a study which revealed that women take pride in using the systems and demonstrate an eagerness to learn about new designs and products. Men, on the other hand, once trained to service the solar systems, migrate to the cities in search for better opportunities. In seguito, the project succeeds on two fronts – empowering women and fostering sustainable development.
