"Majority of the population in the developing countries live in rural areas heavily dependent on biomass for meeting their energy needs. However, severe pressure on the natural resources is rendering the rural energy systems economically and environmentally unsustainable in many regions of the world. In order to deal with this other energy crisis. Several countries--India and China being notable examples have been promoting renewable energy technologies based on solar, wind, water, and biomass resources in a big way. In the last two decades, several successes, as well as failures, have been experienced which could provide valuable feedback to formulate policies for better implementation of the programmes in the future. An attempt has been made to synthesize these experiences in this publication.".
