Bioenergy for PV Hybrid Electricity Generation

The proposed project will investigate the use of biofuel as part of a hybrid power
generation system. The power generated using biofuel will be used as a supplement
to stabilize the power supply during weather events and operate when the sun is
not shining leading to a constant output The project will particularly target the
creation of know-how that can lead to the development of commercial small-scale
waste-to-biofuel technology that can be installed in farms, abattoirs and remote
communities to produce energy from biomass. This will result in almost fully green
and renewable power generation in which the needed battery storage capacity is
greatly reduced. Such technology can significantly lessen the adverse environmental
footprint due to the toxic chemicals used in batteries whilst also minimising waste
disposal.
