Here, we propose an approach for supporting the design and performance evaluation phase of solar cooking technologies, to assess their eventual appropriateness remote rural contexts, before proposing them local field tests. The is based on (1) context description analysis, (2) construction cookers, (3) thermodynamic evaluation. We used analyse 3 cookers area Mutoyi, Burundi: a parabolic, panel, box cooker. From phases 1 2, only panel emerged as technically viable solutions: They were sized,...
This paper is devoted to describe the development, implementation and application of a novel procedure properly design electrification process in rural areas Emerging Countries (EC). The exploits bottom-up approach, i.e. target applications are related micro-grids satisfy electrical needs small communities. starts from microscopic data (i.e. single electric appliances) effectively catch customer bottom) it matches them with available energy sources area. In particular, tool named LoadProGen...
Rural electrification plays a key role in terms of achieving the target universal access to electricity by 2030. In order deploy reliable and sustainable solutions, sizing phase decentralized power systems requires specific inputs such as long-term forecasts load. rural contexts, is extremely interlinked social-economic complex dimensions that turn, influence demand. this paper, we rely on System Dynamics for modelling complexities, calibrate results with data from hydroelectric-based...
Currently, about 2.7 billion people across the world still lack access to clean cooking means. Humanitarian emergencies and post-emergencies are among most critical situations: utilization of traditional devices such as three-stone fires have a huge negative impact not only on food security but also socio-economic status people, their health surrounding environment. Advanced Cooking Stoves may constitute better systems compared actual ones, however, financial, logistic time constraints...
Small-scale hydropower generation represents one of the most appropriate option to spread access electricity in rural Tanzania. In this context, CEFA, an Italian non-government organization, has been recently awarded with a grant by Tanzanian Rural Energy Agency for realization feasibility study 6MW grid-connected Small Hydro Power Plant, situated Ninga-Njombe. needs accurate load demand evaluation villages area, maximize energy output plant and surplus that could be sold national electric...
