Abstract
"Solar Village" project has been designed to use clean energy technologies to empower rural communities to accelerate their social development and poverty reduction. This project
started with a Higher Education (HE) - Link programme funded by the DFID (Department For International Development - UK), managed by the British Council and co-ordinated by
the main author. The HE-Link continued in the 1990s and the solar village was piloted in September 2008 in Sri Lanka, and monitored for four years and now moving to the
replication phase. This poster presents the concepts behind the project, activities taking place in the pilot village, its impacts and advantages for the whole society and current
replication plans. This project can be modified to suit any community according to their social requirements, geography and the climate.
