Within the project called “'The Demonstration and Promotion of Solar Energy Uses in Şahmuratlı Village” (TUR-05-14, which was financed mainly by the United Nations Global Environment Facility's Small Grants Programme (UNDP-GEF) and implemented by the Kerkenes project office and Şahmuratlı Associationbetween 2006-2007, the concept ofusingsolar power and solar-powered designs (solar cookers, solar dryers and solar box ovens) has been introduced to the villagers and several practiceshave been held.Since the villagers have participated to both to the trainings and design works during the applications of the solar-powered designs, they have gained mastery on these topics. However, within time, villagers have encountered a number of difficulties while using the solar-powered designs(e.g.the need to replace frequently the reflective adhesive paper on the cookers, the heaviness of the cast iron cooker and the low efficiency of the solar drier).To overcome those problems, a new project called “Improvement of the Solar Powered Devices and Branding Infrastructure in Kerkenes, Sorgun”, which has been developed by the Kerkenes project officeand Şahmuratlı Associationand supported by the UNDP-GEF, has been applied between 2008-2010.

A review of Ghana's solar energy potential
Asumadu-Sarkodie, Samuel; Owusu, Phebe Asantewaa (2016-01-01)
The Eight Hundred and Thirty-Second ACT of the Parliament of the Republic of Ghana entitled: Renewable Energy Act, 2011 has assented to provide for the development, management, utilization, sustainability and adequate supply of renewable energy for generation of heat and power for related matters by the year 2020. With the current load shedding and inadequate energy supply in Ghana, it was essential to examine other options that can be added to the grid installed capacity to ease the burden on Ghanaians. Th...
A hybrid solar photovoltaic-wind turbine-Rankine cycle for electricity generation in Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus
Asumadu-Sarkodie, Samuel; Sevinc, Caglan; Jayaweera, Herath M. P. C. (2016-01-01)
This paper presents an energy demand model by designing a hybrid solarwind- thermal power generation system of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, a promising substitute for the expensive battery banks. The study models the future energy demand of Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus based on the IPCC emissions scenario A1B and A2 by designing a new hybrid solar-wind-thermal power system that satisfies the current and future requirements of firm capacity during peak periods. The study suggests an improv...
THE ROLE OF COMMUNITY ENERGY PLANNING IN DECENTRALIZATION POLICIES OF TURKEY
Erkan, Esengül; Senol Balaban, Meltem; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2022-1-27)
The thesis examines the applications of renewable energy towards community energy as an urban policy in the local governments of Turkey. A comprehensive study was conducted on the energy production and consumption from renewable energy in the world and in Turkey, and the increase in global renewable energy activities in recent years was discussed together with issues such as climate crisis and localization. In the discussions on political, administrative, and financial decentralization and privatization pol...
An analysis on the potential of solar photovoltaic power
Samu, Remember; Fahrioglu, Murat (2017-01-01)
In this present paper, the potential of solar photovoltaic power in Zimbabwe so as to cater for the rising energy demand is assessed. The main objective of this present study is to convert solar resources in 28 different locations scattered all over the country into electrical energy. This investment requires a capital cost of US$18,952,500 and a total land area of 51,020m(2). The 10 MW grid-connected PV potential is feasible for all the chosen locations. Chegutu seems to be the most suitable and profitable...
Thermodynamic and economic analysis of a solar thermal powered adsorption cooling system
Demirocak, Derviş Emre; Baker, Derek Keıth; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2008)
In this thesis, yearly performance of the solar adsorption cooling system which is proposed to be installed to a residential building in Antalya is theoretically investigated in detail. Firstly, thermodynamic designs of the adsorption cooling cycle for three different types of cycles which are intermittent, heat recovery and heat & mass recovery cycles are presented. Secondly, adsorption characteristics of three adsorbent/adsorbate pairs which are zeolite-water, silica gel-water and activated carbon-methano...
