Ghagara Women Farmer & Sehal Village Producer Group
Gumla
Sehal is a small tribal village in the Gumla district of Jharkhand, approximately 130 km from Ranchi, the state capital. The village is home to around 110 families, mostly consisting of smallholder farmers with an average landholding of 2.5 acres and an annual income of ₹55,000. The villagers rely mainly on agriculture and forest produce for their livelihood. The Climate Smart Village Solution in Sehal Village includes a 40 kW solar array with an innovative IoT-enabled smart power management system. This system ensures that the solar panels are used to their full capacity by directing power to different loads based on demand. It provides power to four irrigation pumps, one oil expeller, one leaf plate molding machine, a rice huller, a groundnut sheller, 110 households, 20 streetlights, a photocopy/printing machine, and an electric transport vehicle that requires 24/7 power through an inverter with battery backup. The system is now managed by the Ghagara Women Farmer Producer Company.
The system advocates for sustainability and can be overseen by farmer-producer companies and producer groups within the village. This initiative generates employment opportunities in rural areas and guarantees round-the-clock reliable electricity for households. The resulting impact encompasses augmented household income, enhanced livelihood prospects, food and nutrition security, decreased migration, empowerment of women, and a reduction of carbon emissions by 60,000 kilograms per year.
