ABSTRACT: In this increasingly growing
population especially in the developing countries, it is almost impossible to
solve the energy crisis. This has led to the extreme growth of the back up
power generation industry such as Diesel generators and home invertors. From
the last couple of years the solar PV technology has started to penetrate in
these geographies. This paper discusses on the supply side management of the
electricity sources available to a consumer to manage his outage and also the
over all cost optimization, as the cost of energy from every source is
different and it also depends on the load curve, last but not the least also as
to what time of the day what source or combination of sources have been used.
