Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides students and practicing engineers with a comprehensive guide to off-grid electrification: from microgrids and energy kiosks to solar home systems and solar lanterns. As the off-grid electrification industry grows, universities are starting and expanding courses and programs in humanitarian engineering and appropriate technology. However, there is no textbook that serves this growing market. This book fills that gap by providing a technical foundation of off-grid electrical systems, putting into context the technical aspects for developing countries, and discussing best practices by utilizing real-world data. Chapters expertly integrate the technical aspects of off-grid systems with lessons learned from industry-practitioners taking a pragmatic, data-driven perspective. A variety of off-grid systems and technologies are discussed, including solar, wind, hydro, generator sets, biomass systems, battery storage and converters. Realistic examples, case studies and practical considerations from actual systems highlight the interaction of off-grid systems with the economic, environmental, social and broader development aspects of rural electrification. Whole chapters are dedicated to the operation and control of mini-grids, load and resource estimation, and design of off-grid systems. Special topics focused on electricity access in developing countries are included, such as energy use in rural communities, technical and economic considerations of grid extension, electricity theft, metering, and best practices devoted to common problems. Each chapter is instructor friendly and contains illustrative examples and problems that reinforce key concepts. Complex, open-ended design problems throughout the book challenge the reader to think critically and deeply. The book is appropriate for use in advanced undergraduate and graduate courses related to electrical and energy engineering, humanitarian engineering, and appropriate technology. Provides a technical foundation of off-grid electrical systems; Contextualizes the technical aspects for developing countries; Captures the current and state-of-the art in this rapidly developing field.

Almost anywhere you live, you can obtain energy via solar power. Of course, you must have the proper equipment but from there, the rest happens automatically each and every day with the rising sun. Instead of paying the energy companies for power, you can learn how solar energy is becoming more and more viable. Reductions in costs make it less money to install than one thinks.The chances of losing energy or receiving less than what you require are higher in other resources. On the other hand, you can design your solar system according to your energy requirements and leverage energy production throughout the year no matter where you live due to the raw power of the sun. We discussed a variety of things:- How kids and monsters relate to electricity. - The reality of solar power and the super easy practical aspects of getting it designed and installed o **BONUS**: we even have design a questionnaire to help you gauge exactly what you need- What I describe as the "critical mission parameters" - or the two main concerns about solar power- A simplified strategy to increase your amp-hours when hooking up your batteries- What came first, the chicken or the egg? Actually there is no chick or egg, just appliances versus solar power- Do you want a quantitative or qualitative approach in choosing your solar panels- Putting it all together: general step-by-step instructions to do-it-yourself- Moving from grid to solar power in your home has unique benefits book we break down these benefits to ultimately help you determine if this if the right move for you. - But doesn't is cost too much? NO, not anymore. We will show you how you can save money with a solar installation in your home, RV, or your camperYou will benefit greatly from this book, that much I can promise you. BUT you are probably thinking: can't I get this info on Google by doing my own research? Yeah, you probably can. Then you have to sift thru numerous pages of data to determine what is relevant to you and make sense of it all. With my vast years of knowledge in the construction industry, I have taken the 'complicated' out of the materials, and replaced them with 'easy to follow' so you won't be overwhelmed. So what are you waiting for? Scroll up and purchase this book on any available media and take action towards energy freedom today. You won't regret it.

This book was released on 2021-11-05 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The transition to clean energy is moving far too slowly. Trapped by a century of fossil fuel investments and politicians that struggle to plan beyond the next election, the "Big Grid" that powers our modern world is outdated and in dire need of an upgrade. Freeing Energy offers a new and faster path towards a clean energy future-one that is more reliable, more equitable, and cheaper. Just like personal computers eclipsed mainframes, millions of solar rooftops and small battery systems are challenging every assumption about our century-old, centralized electric grid. These small-scale "local energy" systems are deeply disruptive because they are based on fast-moving technologies, not fuels. Driven by a new generation of innovators and genuinely competitive markets, smaller systems are faster to build, easier to finance, cleaner to operate, and they create far more jobs than large-scale projects. Bill Nussey takes readers to mud huts in Africa, an off-grid farm in California, and a rural school in the mountains of Puerto Rico to uncover the underlying patterns of technology and the business model innovations of the local energy revolution. He shares stories and insights from some of the industry's brightest visionaries and from leaders of the most cutting-edge startups, bringing it all together into an actionable framework to help accelerate this transition. Freeing Energy is a deeply researched, actionable guide for anyone that cares about the future of energy-from startups, policymakers, investors, and utility leaders to the families and communities that want cleaner, cheaper energy today.
