Develo** nations around the world are facing energy deficit crisis due to an increasing
energy demand and slow exploitation of renewable energy (RE) technologies. Among …

The energy usage intensity of healthcare institutions is extensive. The recorded relative
typical energy consumption of hospitals has been noted to be in the range of 43 to 93 …

Renewable energy sources are the key alternatives to mitigate the issue of greenhouse
gases (GHGs) and to meet the ever increasing electricity demand. In South Africa, most …

Although the use of solar photovoltaics (PV) is one of the preferred alternative technologies
for residential electricity supply, PV output power corresponds better to commercial load …

The difficulties faced in the extension of conventional grid electricity to remote locations elicit
increased application of renewable energy (RE) sources in such locations. In locations that …

This paper proposes an optimal energy management model for a grid-connected micro-
hydrokinetic pumped hydro storage (MHK-PHS) hybrid system supplying the commercial …

This paper addresses a pumped-storage stations scheduling problem. The study
contribution is three-fold. First, a new service-related multi-objective function is proposed …

This paper develops a model which can be used to minimize the electricity cost of South
African farms through the usage of a wind pump with pico hydro generator and a borehole in …

Municipal or industrial wastewater from the treatment plant is discharge by marine outfalls
