Melkamu,
Summary: Your efforts are NOT aligned with THIS Listserv which is
about gasifers and making electricity, etc, which you are not doing.
Join the Stoves Listserv stove.bioenergylists.org has the
way to join.
I will see your messages there as you introduce your project.

Dear Prof. Paul S. Anderson
1. I am working on microgrid design for the rural village.it
<http://village.it> is off grid and I am doing the power generation
part .the village have 400 households and now the village use kerosene
for light purpose and wood for cooking.so I am designing a microgrid
having the solar and wind system for lighting and other purpose .I
choose to use wind and solar because the village have a good solar
radiation and wind speed potential. For the wind I am planning to use
small wind turbine. Now I don't have a bouget but that village is
selected as a model village by the university and as my advisor told
me they plan to electrify that village. When ma paper is done the
university see it and give me some of the bouget and then I will apply
the rest to nongovernmental organization work on green energy. If u
need to see the power that I plan for the village I will attach you
the document.
2.When I said I design the cooking part with solar energy I don't mean
the gasifier stove. I mean using other material like resistor or like
normal stove.so when I design it the resistor need 3KW power which is
very costy. Then I try to find other alternative for cooking then I
came up with gasifier stove.it <http://stove.it> need only 3W and cost
effective. I read so many kind of gasifier stove like the forced air
and natural draft one. I also see how they construct on youtube too.
But I need some suggestion and idea.
3. I love to join because the stove is one of my focus on my project.
kindles regards
Melkamu

Dear Melkamu,
Your reply is useful. There are some questions for
clarification. Please comment and confirm or correct the following.
1. You are primarily working on a Microgrid for a village. Is
the project about the grid of connections, or about the power
generation, or both? More details please. Size of village and
energy desired and what is currently available and what is the
desired usage of the power? etc. send details. And you have a
budget?
2. You mention the gasifier stoves. You wrote;
when i design the cooking part with solar energy it is very
costy cause for cooking only it needs 3kw panel for each
household .
USUALLY, the gasifier stoves (TLUDs mainly) are natural draft (ND)
and do not need any power.
But there are (coming soon also) TLUDs with Fan Assistance (FA
also means Forced Air). But they need only about 3 watts (not
kW), which can be done via the Solar panels and battery backups.
The use of electricity for cooking (as in hot plates and
appliances) is not recommended.
3. I work with the TLUD stoves (both ND and FA), and the
discussion about those stove is via the Stoves Listserv, that you
might consider joining if the stoves are the focus of your project.
We look forward to your reply.
Note: until 19 Nov, my replies could be delayed. I am on a road
trip from IL to CA in the USA, including the Power Africa 2014
Conference in Golden Colorado on 13 - 14 Nov.
Happy to meet with anyone during that trip and at the conference.

Dear paul
i am a power system engineering postgraduate student i am try to
do my thesis on Microgrid design for the model rural village
kollela in Ethiopia so i plan to design affordable design for the
village cause if it is affordable the university will give me a
fund and i will implement it or i also work in the university and
they told me that they will give me a fund if it is a good design
as they give me before to implement the solar water pump that
done on kollela village with my adviser.As the village have high
solar radiation and wind speed it is better to use solar and wind
as a source of energy to electrify the village but for cooking it
is better to use gasifing stove.
we done a solar water pump project with my adviser before and he
told me to design a Microgrid for that village to help the
villager get light and other facility so when i design the
cooking part with solar energy it is very costy cause for
cooking only it needs 3kw panel for each household . they cant
afford it and also we will not get that much fund to support the
village.
after i done the design and the all thing the university see the
paper and give us a fund for it or we will find the fund as we
get for the water pump too .so i plan to get good information
regarding to gasifing stove.

Dear Melkamu,
There are various people willing to assist you. It would be
very useful if you could provide more information about
yourself and your project. We do not know your skill
levels, access to equipment, budget, or the size of your
rural electrification project (or even about you supply of
biomass).
Also, you said "gasfier stove" which can be quite different
from "gasifier", especially when you started discussing
electricity generation.
Please reply to the Listserv so that the maximum number of
people can better understand you situation and your needs.
Then we can assist better.

Dear Everyone
I am Melkamu from Ethiopia and i am doing a project on rural
electrification using solar ,wind and biomass and i want to
do a gasifier stove for a household in rural village i read
a lots of paper done on gasifier stove is their any
recommendation that u told me before i start to manufacturer
the model .
