Abstract
The main vision for our research is to support the role of sustainable energy in providing affordable energy access and ending energy poverty worldwide. The research study is carried within the global initiative Affordable Energy for Humanity (AE4H). Using a practical, hand-on research approach, with international off-grid deployed projects in Africa, Europe and North America.
In this talk, we will describe our applied research concept and share actual project-related outcomes and experiences for a contrastive techno-economic analysis and system design optimization of an Off-grid Hybrid Renewable Electricity System (OHRES). Case studies in contrastive remote location were selected in Canada (Nemaiah Valley) and Uganda (Jinja) for the OHRES deployment.
