The format for village enregy survey is based on the MNES questionnaire for village survey for rural electrification. The questions are framed to have picture of the village electrification status and electrical demand and also the possible renewable energy source. It also includes the mode of implementation of the identified energy source. Click for Village Survey Form / Data Sheet (RCSD surveys of 12 Assam villages can be found below)

Vill. survey data Belorbori bari
|
|
|
The village, Belorboribari is located in a flood plan area adjoining the banks of river Brahmaputra and suffers from annual flooding and stagnation of floodwater for more than a month as reported by the village community. The sonai river in a stagnating stage flows at a distance of 0.5 km from the village hence energy option under micro hydro is ruled out. Besides the average annual wind speed is about 2.70 m/s, which makes wind energy potential an unviable option even for micro Wind Turbines. In regards to biomass based power generation the potential for wood based biomass gasifier is limited as the area suffers from shortage of woody biomass, as the primary source for wood biomass is the homestead gardens, with 100% of wood biomass being used for cooking energy requirement
