Abstract | One of the main objectives of MEPCO is to provide electricity to every village under its jurisdiction but due to currently prevailed electricity crisis in the country the pace of electrifying the rural households is in declining stage as currently supplied electricity is not even fulfilling the requirements of on grid people. Renewable energy resources are widely available in Pakistan, particularly within MEPCO jurisdiction. Right from the start of human life, several energy service delivery models, from the traditional to modern energy service delivery have been emerged with the passage of time. The successful energy service delivery model should focus on quality product/service delivery, involvement of local community right from the initiation of the project, institutional coordination, utilization of micro-credit institutions, and startup working capital loans for technology suppliers and service providers. Different ways have been adopted for classification of energy service delivery models; centralized grid based distribution system, off-grid centralized rural electricity supply system and off-grid decentralized rural electricity supply system; traditional & modern energy service delivery models; government-led, commercialized, commercialized via subsidy, commercialized via civil society, and public private partnership. For financial classification, energy service delivery models are private financing, public power utility financing, government financing, and public-private partnership. PV Micro Utility was used in Bangladesh and has good financial viability, user satisfaction and better resource utilization |
