Prospective Implementation of Grid-Interactive Photovoltaic Systems in the South African Residential Sector
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the relevant literature on photovoltaic technology, under the time of use (TOU) tariff and feed-in tariff scheme, applicable to residential consumers of energy in South Africa is presented.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Daily operation cost minimization of photovoltaic-diesel-battery hybrid systems using different control strategies
TL;DR: The results show that using the developed models, the daily operation cost can be significantly reduced compared to the case where the diesel is the only alternative of providing the load.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy savings configuration for a water-pumping system
TL;DR: In this article, a water-pump configuration with an air-compressor and a pneumatic actuator was proposed to reduce the amount of energy utilized when pumping the water from one area to another.
