Abstract :

In the age of modern techniques for energy conservation & energy renewal, there are many areas in all parts of the world which are confronted with energy issues. Specially a state like Sikkim in a developing country like India, where most of the population is settled in remote areas of the Himalayan range & is still deprived of many technological benefits, needs to be studied carefully to draw a fruitful conclusion so that the study can prove helpful to everyone (public or govt.) in overcoming the issues.
