Connecting solar generated electricity during flood disaster in the FELDA communities of Malaysia: the public perception

Solar electrification is a significant solution for supplying electricity at the evacuation centre during power shortage or blackouts in a flood disaster situation. However, it is a challenge to connect this technology to the local communities, especially for the rural people due to the limited acce...
