Wind diesel
Diesel generators are often used to produce electricity in remote areas
with isolated grids. Electricity generated in this way is expensive.
Besides the purchase price for diesel there are other specific costs
that have to be taken in to account. Costs for transport and storage
and costs of losses, for example. On top of this diesel generators are
not very efficient and will generate about 3 to 4 kWh out of one litre
of diesel. As a result the price for electrical energy in isolated
grids is high, sometimes up to 80 Euro cent per kWh.
