for Short distance HVAC.. but costs of towers and overhead lines are higher

for Long distance HVDC.. but costs of converters are large

Thanks.

Generate it close to town, not far away in a generating station. Power lines are expensive. They have lots of sun, so use solar panels on roofs.

Thanks, Mr.James Van Damme

I went to Madagascar a few years ago, and wondered why they were generating power by diesel (unreliably) for a small town, when they had gigawatts of sun falling on them. But they need some storage & I don't know how to solve that. Mountains plus lots of water would suggest pumped hydro.

In my state(Kadamparaivalparai,western ghats),during peak hours we produce hydel electricity, during off peak hours,excess electricity is used to pump up water.The world is contemplating different ways to store elctrical energy.i read,few over it,in my mind.

Research into the results of Nicoli Tesla.

He did a lot of the basic research into this topic.

Thanks Mr.Brian Conley
