Provision of alternative off-grid solar solution for non-electrified area in Ghana
Halaška, Vojtěch
This diploma thesis analyses issues related to current energy crisis and electrification process in Ghana, in connection with socio-economic impacts on society, and simultaneously presents opportunities of applying alternative off-grid solar technologies as potential solution. The main aim of the thesis is to develop comprehensive project targeted at solution for the lack of light and providing ability for charging small electronic devices, resulting to improving living conditions for inhabitants in non-electrified areas. Solution mentioned in the thesis, was developed on the basis of particular conditions considering the highest efficiency, reliability and simultaneously the lowest initial costs. Significant attention was paid to technological transfer challenge; ensuring long-term sustainability. Valuable information and experience were gained through experimental installation in the village of Akukusu, during Scholarly Internship in Ghana, leading to modification and further technology development. Particular examples of possible applications in cooperation with local subjects, which were achieved within semester study at the University of Ghana, are mentioned in closing part. These examples prove feasibility and simple modification for particular conditions. Subsequent possibilities of extension and further development are mentioned as well.
