Abstract
In this work, electrification scenario of the state of Chhattisgarh has been presented, which is the 10th largest state of India with
a total population 25 million has total 19567 villages and 80% of the population lives in rural areas. Herein, we have bestowing
17 out of 133 villages in which electrification has been done in 2017 and 2018. All these villages are in the region Dantewada and
Bijapur. These two regions consist most remote villages of the state and the awareness about, how electricity will help them in
improving their lifestyle is quite less. The focus of the present work is aligned to investigate the electricity connectivity scenario of
these remote villages. Further, alternative novel mechanism of the remote village electrification using magnetic fluid-based energy
harvesting has been proposed which can eventually solves the major issues in remote village electrification.
