Solar-Powered Smart Community
(2015-02-01)
Population growth in Dubai has increased power requirements, causing a depletion in natural resources. Our solution is to build a Smart Community in Dubai that will overcome these issues. The model consists of Thermal Solar ...
Sustainable Energy Replacement for Asphalt: Solar Roadways
(2015-02-01)
The goal of this research project is to replace the current asphalt roads with an alternative that will make use of the thermal energy both from the sun’s heat and the friction from car tires that was previously wasted on ...
Running AUS on Solar Energy
(2014-01-19)
In this project, we have proposed fitting each building in AUS with Solar Panels to charge up that building during the day, and for non-renewable energy to be distributed only at night when required. By switching over to ...
Green Ships
(2014-01-19)
Our EMPD topic discusses how wind turbines and solar panels can both be installed on ships, in order to conserve the fuel consumed and reduce the subsequent harmful emissions. The implantation of this solution leads to ...
Estimating Dust Accumulation on Photovoltaic Modules in the UAE
(2019-05)
Among the challenges facing solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), dust is considered the most severe problem that faces the growth of solar power plants. Dust accumulation on solar PV panels ...
Design of a Fully Concentrated Solar Powered Electricity Generation Plant for the UAE
(2018-09)
The increase in the world’s demand for electricity and the depletion of the fossil fuels used in conventional power plant systems raises the need for different renewable sources of electricity generation. Concentrated solar ...
Enhancing a Simple Water-Based Photovoltaic-Thermal (PVT) Solar Collector Using CFD Analysis
(2019-07)
Photovoltaics thermal collectors are gaining more attention due to their promising potential to pave the way for the penetration of solar energy in modern day power generation technologies. PVTs’ flexibility, manufacturability, ...
