The impact of capacitor coupled sub-station in rural electrification of sub-Saharan Africa
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2015)
The overall electricity access rate is still very low in most sub-Saharan African (SSA) countries. The rate is even
lower in rural areas where most of the population in these countries lives. One of the main obstacles to ...
Solar-wind hybrid energy system for new engineering complex- technical university of Mombasa
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
A hybrid energy system combines multiple types of energy generation in order to meet the demand of the users
effectively and efficiently. The Solar-Wind hybrid system consists of electrical energy generated from wind and ...
Electricity generation from municipal solid waste (MSW)
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
With the world’s energy demand increasing by the day, carbon dioxide emission rate also increases due to the
dependency on fossil fuels for energy production. Several attempts have been made to reduce the dependence fossil ...
Integrated Electricity Tarrif Model for Kenya
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
Tariffs and tariff structures has been changing over a period of time all over the world. This has acted as a key factor
which limits development in third world country. This project therefore seeks to detemine the best ...
Thermal analysis of a CSP-Biogas hybrid power plant
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
As the energy costs continue to rise steadily, researchers are looking for alternative sources of energy to meet the
rising demand for sustainable energy. Finding an inexpensive and reliable energy generation technology ...
Implication of using auxiliary service voltage transformer sub-stations for rural electrification
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
Abstract: Providing an affordable and reliable electricity supply to rural communities is seen by countries round the world as
one of the major keys to development. A good quality and stable electricity supply can provide ...
The impacts of distributed generation using high speed wind turbines on power system transient stability
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
Wind power generation source differs in several respects from conventional sources of energy like hydro and
thermal. Furthermore, wind generators are usually based on different generator technologies other than the ...
Power swing prediction for out-of-step mitigation
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
This paper explored the possibility of accurately predicting the classification of developing power swings. The
notion of machine learning was employed, and tested the application of Decision Tree (DT) algorithms to wide ...
Strategic PMU placement for stability enhancement
(International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering, 2014)
This paper explored a novel method for strategic monitoring of a power system to schematically monitor power
system variables that are sensitive to transients. The characteristics of a fully developed transient or power ...
Innovative solar photovoltaic and thermoelectric power generator for a recirculating aquaculture system
(2020)
Solar Photovoltaic power generation is fast gaining popularity in Kenya. However, the effects of high cell temperatures continue
to be a major hindrance to their efficiency especially for standalone systems. Water can be ...
