Saving energy in your business entails making a decision to consume less energy. Can it really be that easy? You may be asking. Absolutely, it can! It’s not only easy, but it has a lot of advantages. By using less energy, we can slow down the depletion of fossil fuels and contribute to environmental cleanup. […]
Green energy is the energy obtained from non-finite or non-exhaustible natural resources on the planet, such as wind and sunlight (solar). Solar energy is produced by capturing sunlight’s radiant energy and converting it to heat, electricity, or hot water. Solar cells are used in photovoltaic (PV) systems to convert direct sunlight into electricity. One of […]
After a significant decline in the 1990s, hydropower development has increased during the previous two decades. The population of Africa is quickly expanding, although only one-third of its citizens have access to modern energy. Given that just 8% of Africa’s enormous hydro resources have been explored, this presents an investment opportunity for all types of […]
An energy audit is a study of energy costs and efficiency. An energy audit, review, or assessment for a property is precisely what it sounds like. An audit will evaluate each and every energy use in your business and detail every aspect, just as any audit that is conducted on finances, projects, or businesses. Simply […]
The potential of wind energy is being seen. The Global Wind Energy Council (GWEC) reports that in 2020, a record 93 GW of new wind capacity was built globally. Over the next five years, 469 GW of additional wind generating capacity, according to GWEC, will be added globally. Despite this global expansion, Africa only […]
Africa’s greatest potential hydropower source is the Nile, which is the longest river in the world. The Nile passes through a variety of environments over its nearly 7,000 km journey from its source in the African Great Lakes to its delta in Egypt, including mountains, tropical forests, desert, savannahs, and wetlands, many of which are […]
Renewable energy is energy obtained from non-finite or non-exhaustible natural resources on the planet, such as wind and sunlight (solar). Solar energy is produced by capturing sunlight’s radiant energy and converting it to heat, electricity, or hot water. Solar cells are used in photovoltaic (PV) systems to convert direct sunlight into electricity. One of […]
One of the fastest-growing renewable energy technologies is wind power. Globally, usage is increasing, partly due to lower costs. Onshore and offshore installed wind-generation capacity has increased over time, and wind electricity production has risen dramatically year after year. Wind speeds are significant in many places of the world, but the ideal spots for […]
A mini-grid is a self-contained power system or an integrated local generating and distribution system with an installed capacity of less than 1MW that can serve multiple end customers while remaining independent of the national grid. A mini-grid can provide reliable and affordable electricity in remote areas where population density is insufficient to justify connecting […]
An energy audit is a study of a company’s energy costs and efficiency. Understanding an organization’s energy consumption begins with an energy audit. It entails a thorough investigation and analysis of site-specific energy use, which includes an examination of equipment, processes, and user behaviour patterns. This allows a business to find places where it can […]
