Field Assessment of a Rooftop Solar Photovoltaic–Battery Hybrid System for Carbon-Emission Mitigation at a Remote Site in Ngorongoro, Tanzania
Urbanus F. Melkior & Nickson JohnArusha Technical College (ATC), Arusha, P.O. Box 296 Arusha, Tanzaniaurbanusmelkior@gmail.com/ nixonmalima@gmail.com Abstract—Sub-Saharan Africa must extend electricity access while restraining the growth of energy-sector carbon emissions. Distributed solar photovoltaic (PV) generation with battery storage is widely proposed to reconcile these aims, yet measured field evidence quantifying the achieved mitigation for small…
