India houses the largest share of the world’s population deprived of electricity with about 237 million people lacking access (International Energy Agency). At the same time, in India, many households that do have access to electricity lack an uninterrupted and quality power supply. A recent study conducted by the Council for Energy, Environment, and Water (CEEW) across six states (Bihar, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, West Bengal, and Odisha), found that about 50% of the households had no electricity despite having a grid connection. This indicates that there is an immediate need to address the quality, affordability, and reliability of the power supply in addition to extending the grid footprint. As shown in Figure 1, the CEEW report suggests that, despite thousands of villages being electrified over the pas...

This concept is being piloted and tested for practical viability in Sasaram, India. This paper discusses the necessary interventions needed at the sub-station end and the consumer end. The design details of the Brown-Out Feeder Energization Automation System (BOFEAS) commissioned in various feeders at Sasaram are also presented in this paper. The new efficient resonant switching power converter design has proven to be critical in developing Uninterrupted DC Power Module (UDPM), which is required to make in-home DC power line and DC power distribution possible. Various implementation challenges while executing UDC solution in Sasaram are also elaborated in this paper. Furthermore, the key role the local DISCOMs have to play in order to ensure UDC solution is implemented effectively is stressed upon. The learnings from Sasaram presented in this paper could be leveraged to ensure 24X7 good quality power supply across India.
